“…For example, mothers with greater interoceptive knowledge may be better able to assist children with identifying and managing emotions. Interoceptive knowledge may also support other skills not measured in this study, such as parents' ability to mentalize about their children's internal states or parental modeling of effective emotion regulation and social skills, as suggested by literature connecting interoception with empathy, emotion regulation, and prosociality (Durlik, Brown, & Tsakiris, ; Ernst et al, ; Ferri, Ardizzi, Ambrosecchia, & Gallese, ). Future work should examine how interoceptive knowledge may facilitate parental inferences about children's internal states, such as work on affect mirroring and attunement, social biofeedback theory, and mind‐mindedness (Gergely & Watson, ; Holodynski & Seeger, ; Meins, Fernyhough, Johnson, & Lidstone, ).…”

Interoception, often defined as the perception of internal physiological changes, is implicated in many adult social affective processes, but its effects remain understudied in the context of parental socialization of children's emotions. We hypothesized that what parents know about the interoceptive concomitants of emotions, or interoceptive knowledge (e.g., “my heart races when excited”), may be especially relevant in emotion socialization and in supporting children's working models of emotions and the social world. We developed a measure of mothers' interoceptive knowledge about their own emotions and examined its relation to children's social affective outcomes relative to other socialization factors, including self‐reported parental behaviors, emotion beliefs, and knowledge of emotion‐relevant situations and non‐verbal expressions. To assess these, mothers (N = 201) completed structured interviews and questionnaires. A few months later, third‐grade teachers rated children's social skills and emotion regulation observed in the classroom. Results indicated that mothers' interoceptive knowledge about their own emotions was associated with children's social affective skills (emotion regulation, social initiative, cooperation, self‐control), even after controlling for child gender and ethnicity, family income, maternal stress, and the above maternal socialization factors. Overall, findings suggest that mothers' interoceptive knowledge may provide an additional, unique pathway by which children acquire social affective competence.

“…Across a large number of studies, it has been shown that anticipation of public speaking is particularly effective at inducing social anxiety with concomitant increases in physiological arousal 23–26 . Therefore, the current study utilized the speech anticipation manipulation to examine how the use of doppel could enable participants to cope better with their anxiety while they were preparing to deliver a speech to a group of people.…”

We assessed the calming effect of doppel, a wearable device that delivers heartbeat-like tactile stimulation on the wrist. We tested whether the use of doppel would have a calming effect on physiological arousal and subjective reports of state anxiety during the anticipation of public speech, a validated experimental task that is known to induce anxiety. Two groups of participants were tested in a single-blind design. Both groups wore the device on their wrist during the anticipation of public speech, and were given the cover story that the device was measuring blood pressure. For only one group, the device was turned on and delivered a slow heartbeat-like vibration. Participants in the doppel active condition displayed lower increases in skin conductance responses relative to baseline and reported lower anxiety levels compared to the control group. Therefore, the presence, as opposed to its absence, of a slow rhythm, which in the present study was instantiated as an auxiliary slow heartbeat delivered through doppel, had a significant calming effect on physiological arousal and subjective experience during a socially stressful situation. This finding is discussed in relation to past research on responses and entrainment to rhythms, and their effects on arousal and mood.

“…Therefore, it can be hypothesized that these individuals more likely address stressful situations. Previous research mostly focused on acute stress reactions to stressors such as public speaking (Durlik, Brown, & Tsakiris, 2014;Schandry & Specht, 1981;Stevens et al, 2011), mental arithmetic tasks (Eichler & Katkin, 1994;Herbert, Pollatos, Flor, Enck, & Schandry, 2010), physical exercise (Jones & Hollandsworth, 1981;Pollatos, Herbert, Kaufmann, Auer, & Schandry, 2007), as well as the cold pressor test (Schulz, Lass-Hennemann, Sütterlin, Schächinger, & Vögele, 2013) and its effect on and relationship with IAcc (for a review, see Schulz & Vögele, 2015). However, until now, knowledge is missing concerning the relationship between IAcc and long-term stress.…”

Interoception describes the ability to perceive internal bodily signals. Previous research found a relationship between interoceptive accuracy (IAcc) and cardiovascular outcomes during or after acute stress. So far, the association between IAcc and long‐term stress has not been investigated, although this would be important to identify a starting point to prevent long‐term stress. To address this idea in the current study, we examined the relationship between IAcc and long‐term stress, which was assessed with different questionnaires and biological markers, including cortisol and dehydroepiandrosterone (DHEA). Furthermore, we investigated self‐regulation as a mechanism linking IAcc to long‐term stress. The sample consisted of 98 participants. To measure IAcc, participants completed the heartbeat perception task. Perceived long‐term stress and self‐regulation were assessed via an online questionnaire. Moreover, hair samples were taken from 65 participants to determine long‐term stress with cortisol and DHEA as well as the ratio of both. Results showed that IAcc was positively related to DHEA and weakly negatively related to the other indicators of long‐term stress, except for the nonsignificant relationships to the indicators cortisol and stress experiences due to negative events. Furthermore, these relationships were mediated by participants' enhanced self‐regulation. Thus, our results suggest that enhanced self‐regulation could be a mechanism explaining why IAcc is associated with long‐term stress.
