Interoceptive technologies for psychiatric interventions: From diagnosis to clinical applications
Open accessAbstract
Interoception-the perception of internal bodily signals-has emerged as an area of interest due to its implications in emotion and the prevalence of dysfunctional interoceptive processes across psychopathological conditions. Despite the importance of interoception in cognitive neuroscience and psychiatry, its experimental manipulation remains technically challenging. This is due to the invasive nature of existing methods, the limitation of self-report and unimodal measures of interoception, and the absence of standardized approaches across disparate fields. This article integrates diverse research efforts from psychology, physiology, psychiatry, and engineering to address this oversight. Following a general introduction to the neurophysiology of interoception as hierarchical predictive processing, we review the existing paradigms for manipulating interoception (e.g., interoceptive modulation), their underlying mechanisms (e.g., interoceptive conditioning), and clinical applications (e.g., interoceptive exposure). We suggest a classification for interoceptive technologies and discuss their potential for diagnosing and treating mental health disorders. Despite promising results, considerable work is still needed to develop standardized, validated measures of interoceptive function across domains and before these technologies can translate safely and effectively to clinical settings.

Interoceptive exposure therapy has demonstrated efficacy in reducing anxiety symptoms and increasing tolerance of interoceptive signals.
“Interoceptive exposure therapy, involving systematic exposure to distressing bodily sensations (e.g., chemoreceptive CO2 tasks, respiratory or cardiovascular disruptions), has demonstrated efficacy in reducing anxiety symptoms and increasing tolerance of interoceptive signals [62].”
From Neural correlates of altered interoception in depressive and anxiety disorders: a systematic review and meta-analysis (2026) · cites this paper as [62]
Section 4.2.1 says interoceptive exposure can diminish fear and anxiety responses and help people tolerate distressing bodily sensations. Section 4.2.3 says evidence suggests it is effective for panic disorder. The paper does not establish the claimed increase in tolerance as a demonstrated outcome, and its efficacy language is more qualified than the citing sentence’s. (LLM, conf=0.84)

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
