Labelling of internal states in the self and dependants
27 July 2020
Previous research has shown that there are differences in the ways that adults perceive their internal states (such as heartbeat or breathing rate), and that this may be mediated by biological and/or social factors, with some evidence for a similar phenomenon in children. These differences may relate to how individuals label their internal states. Therefore, the aim of this current study is to investigate possible differences in how people label their own internal states.
