Abstract
In their article, Schoeller and colleagues question whether interoception – namely a unified interoceptive ability – exists. Drawing on evidence that interoceptive accuracy dissociates across domains, the limitations of existing tasks, the unclear mapping of interoceptive accuracy to clinical variables, and the lack of transfer effects in the area of interoceptive training, the authors argue that the existing evidence challenges the notion of a unified interoceptive ability. Whilst this conclusion may reflect the true state of affairs, the limitations of many commonly used interoceptive accuracy tasks, coupled with evidence that tasks show only small correspondence when examined within an interoceptive domain, means that it may be too early to conclude that interoceptive accuracy is domain specific.
