Objectives

Narrative objectives1

The purpose of this study is to investigate the computational mechanisms of the brain's proprioceptive prediction error processing. Specifically, we aim to verify whether a specific light-touch
intervention (Specific Informational Perturbation: SIP) can reset frozen neural dynamics and restore adaptive physiological states.
This research comprises three sub-studies:
Study 1 (RCT): Investigates the existence of the effect compared to a sham (placebo).
Study 2 (Specificity): Investigates whether the effect depends on the type of stimulus.
Study 3 (Ecological): Validates the effect in a home environment.

Assessment

Primary outcomes

We utilize Systemic Active Inference Metrics (SAIM), a novel framework of physiological indicators derived from EEG and heart rate variability (HRV) data.

F (Free Energy Proxy): A metric indicating systemic uncertainty.

NCI (Neural Complexity Index): A measure reflecting the complexity of neural activity.

HEMO (Hemodynamic Coupling): An index representing neurovascular coupling.
