Somatic States and Emotional Awareness: the role of Interoception in Alexithymia
Bibliographic record
Abstract
The goal of this study is to empirically evaluate how different components of the alexithymia construct and the interoceptive construct are related to each other. More specifically, we want to investigate new evidence regarding the magnitude and the directionality (positive or negative association) of the relationship between alexithymia and interoception. Following this, we will conduct a cross-sectional study within three different samples: a sample of young adults (18-35) from Italy, a sample of Singaporean university students, and a sample of young adults (25-30), residing in U.S.A. and recruited through the MTurk platform. Each sample will be assessed through different self-report scales for levels of alexithymia, interoceptive accuracy and interoceptive attention. Our study aims at clarifying the role of interceptive information in building subjective emotional awareness, which seem to be disrupted in individuals with high alexithymia. It is expected that the magnitude and directionality of the relationship between alexithymia and interoception to be independent from demographic variables.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; both teacher heads agree on what is shown here.
