Individual alpha frequency (IAF) is a promising electrophysiological marker of interindividual
differences in cognitive function. IAF has been linked with trait‐like differences in …

What is the function of cognition? On one influential account, cognition evolved to co-ordinate
behaviour with environmental change or complexity (Godfrey-Smith in Complexity and the …

Survival requires the implementation of adaptive changes that demand energy resources.
The efficient regulation of energetic resources thus plays a critical role in enabling systems to …

Interoceptive processing is commonly understood in terms of the monitoring and representation
of the body’s current physiological (ie homeostatic) status, with aversive sensory …

Perceptual awareness depends upon the way in which we engage with our sensorium. This
notion is central to active inference, a theoretical framework that treats perception and action …

Adversarial collaboration has been championed as the gold standard for resolving scientific
disputes but has gained relatively limited traction in neuroscience and allied fields. In this …

Predictive coding provides a compelling, unified theory of neural information processing,
including for language. However, there is insufficient understanding of how predictive models …

The capacity to regulate one’s attention in accordance with fluctuating task demands and
environmental contexts is an essential feature of adaptive behavior. Although the …

Embodied cognition—the idea that mental states and processes should be understood in
relation to one’s bodily constitution and interactions with the world—remains a controversial …

Decreased heart rate (HR) and variability (HRV) are well-established correlates of attention;
however, the functional significance of these dynamics remains unclear. Here, we …
