The changes in the R-wave interval of the ECG immediately after the subthreshold electrical presentation and heartbeat-evoked potential (HEP), the afferent signal processing of cardiac activity, were measured. The results showed that heart rate decelerated immediately after the presentation of subthreshold electrical stimuli. The HEP during stimulus presentation was amplified for participants with greater heart rate acceleration immediately after this deceleration.

One group (<em>N</em> = 16) experienced the listen and repeat condition; the other group (<em>N</em> = 16) experienced the listen and generate condition. When fP3 was probed 0 or 200 ms after noun offset, it was reduced (relative to no noun) only while repeating or generating, not while listening. An additional probe-elicited ERP was identified as novelty-related negativity, and its contaminating influence on fP3 estimation accounted for by a novel vector-filter procedure. We conclude that cognitive load does not affect fP3-indexed susceptibility.

Eighty-two participants (thirty-six men; mean age: 24.28 ± 7.35 years; mean years of education: 15.82 ± 1.77) underwent a resting-state EEG recording and performed the Reading the Mind in the Eyes Test (RMET).

Our results showed that the occurrence of microstate map C was independently and positively associated with the RMET total score and contributed to the prediction of mentalizing performance, even when controlling for potential confounding variables (i.e., age, sex, education level, tobacco and alcohol use). Since microstate C is involved in self-related processes, our findings may reflect the link between self-awareness of one's own thoughts/feelings and the enhanced ability to recognize the mental states of others at the neurophysiological level.
