Heartbeat evoked potentials mirror altered body perception in depressed patients. (hubmed)

OBJECTIVE: Awareness of stimuli originating inside of the body (interoceptive
awareness) is thought to have an impact on psychopathology. The aim of the
present study was to analyze whether heartbeat perception accuracy is reduced
in depressed patients. Furthermore, we investigated whether putative
differences are reflected in heartbeat-evoked potentials. METHOD: We assessed
the heartbeat perception score in 16 depressed patients and in matched healthy
controls. A 63-channel EEG was recorded while participants counted pseudo-
randomly presented target tones or heartbeats during a fixed number of cardiac
cycles. ECG R-waves served as the trigger for EEG averaging. The cardiac-field
artifact was minimized using independent component analysis and current-source
density. RESULTS: Behaviorally, the depressed sample showed less accurate
heartbeat perception in comparison to the control group (p=.011). The two
groups also demonstrated psychophysiological differences, showing that
heartbeat-evoked potentials were significantly reduced in depressed patients.
CONCLUSIONS: Our results suggest that heartbeat evoked potentials are
objective markers of altered bodily awareness. Reduced interoception during
depression may be linked to alexithymia, as well as to both decreased capacity
for decision-making and for cognitive processing. SIGNIFICANCE: It may be
helpful to practice interoceptive awareness ...

Cheap cameras and mirrors, do they alter a person's appearance?

Seriously lol. See sometimes when i Look in certain mirrors like bathroom mirrors, my face looks short and chubby(more rounded), but in other instances it looks slightly thinner and bearable XD. On a camera it does the same thing.. So my question stands, do cameras and mirrors alter a person's appearance?

If a mirror does not have a perfectly flat surface, it will distort the reflection. The extreme example is a fun house mirror.

The short zoom end of inexpensive cameras is a wide-angle setting. Taking a picture of a person on this setting will make his or her nose bigger relative to the rest of the face. Step back and use a long zoom setting. Inexpensive cameras without zooms usually use a wide angle lens. Close up portraits with these cameras will seldom be flattering.
