当人们看到与恐惧相关的刺激的后向屏蔽图像，并且其中只有一些图像与电击一致配对时，即使他们不自觉地知道他们看到了哪些图像，他们也可以预测电击的发生。我们假设他们可能利用条件恐惧反应中的本能反应来促进对冲击的预测。在这项研究中，检测心跳的能力被用来衡量对内脏信号的敏感性。结果表明，能够检测到自己心跳的受试者在预测他们在调节任务期间是否会受到电击方面表现得比偶然更好。研究结果支持这样的观点：预感或“直觉”部分基于对本能暗示的感知。
When people are presented with backward-masked images of fear relevant stimuli and only some of these images are paired consistently with electric shocks, they can predict the occurrence of shocks even though they do not consciously know which images they have seen. We postulated that they may use the perception of visceral cites from the conditional fear response to facilitate the prediction of shocks. In this study, ability to detect heartbeats was used to index sensitivity to visceral cues. The results showed that subjects who could detect their heartbeats performed better than chance in predicting whether or not they would receive a shock during the conditioning task. The findings support the notion that hunches, or "gut feelings," are based in part on the perception of visceral cues.
