Elméleti háttér: Az interoceptív információknak és ezek magasabb szintű integrációjának születésünktől fogva fontos szerepe van a túlélésben és a pszichológiai működésekben is. Ennek a nagy mennyiségű információnak csak egy kis része tudatosul, amelyet három kategóriára, az interoceptív pontosságra, az interoceptív érzékenységre és az interoceptív tudatosságra bonthatunk. Cél: Jelen tanulmány célja, hogy áttekintést nyújtson az interocepció fejlődési vonatkozásairól, továbbá, hogy bemutassa az említett jelenség gyermekkori korrelátumait és fejlesztésével kapcsolatos empirikus eredményeket. Módszerek: A tanulmányban elsőként áttekintjük, hogy a különféle fejlődéselméletekben hogyan jelenik meg az interocepció, majd a szakirodalomban elérhető empirikus eredményeket foglaljuk össze, végül pedig összegezzük a fejlesztés lehetőségeit. Eredmények: A különböző elméletalkotók közül Ádám György adja a legkomplexebb megközelítést, amelynek központi eleme, hogy az egyén figyelme a születés után idővel egyre inkább a külső ingerek felé fordul. Az előbbiek ellenére azonban úgy tűnik, hogy a belső érzetek detektálása újratanulható. Egyes faktorok, mint amilyen például a szorongás és a pánikbetegség tünetei, már gyermekkorban pozitív összefüggést mutatnak az interoceptív pontossággal. Más esetekben, például elhízás vagy krónikus tik zavar során negatív összefüggést találtak, az autizmus spektrumzavar esetében pedig vegyes eredmények születtek. Az interocepció különböző aspektusainak fejleszthetőségével kapcsolatban a túlnyomórészt felnőttektől származó eredmények azt mutatják, hogy inkább az interoceptív tudatosság javítható különféle intervenciók segítségével, bár a pontosság tekintetében elképzelhető, hogy az egyes kontemplatív intervenciók és a testpásztázás fejlesztő hatással bírnak. Következtetések: Az interoceptív tudatossággal kapcsolatos nagyobb számú pozitív eredményt magyarázhatja, hogy az interoceptív pontosság felnőttkorra már stabillá válik, azonban feltételezzük, hogy gyermekkorban még lehetséges a befolyásolása.

Background: From birth onwards, interoceptive information and its higher level of integration play an important role in survival and psychological functioning. Only a minority of this vast amount of information reach consciousness. Interoception can be divided into three categories: interoceptive accuracy, interoceptive sensitivity and interoceptive awareness. Aim: The aim of this paper is to provide an overview of the developmental aspects of interoception and to present empirical findings on correlated of interoception in childhood and opportunities for its improvement. Method: We first review how interoception is included in different developmental theories, then we present the empirical results available in the literature, and finally we summarise the options for improvement. Results: Of the various theorists, György Ádám gives the most complex approach; the central element of his theory is that the individual’s attention is increasingly directed towards external stimuli after birth. Nevertheless, it seems that the perception of interoceptive feelings can be relearned later. Some factors, such as symptoms of anxiety and panic, show a positive correlation with interoceptive accuracy already in childhood. In other cases, such as obesity or chronic tic disorder, a negative association was found while in autism spectrum disorder results were ambiguous. Regarding the improvement of different aspects of interoception, findings obtained mainly from adult participants show that interoceptive sensibility can be improved through various interventions; with respect to accuracy, some contemplative interventions and body panning may have a positive effect. Conclusions: The higher number of positive results on interoceptive sensibility may be explained by the fact that interoceptive accuracy becomes stable in adulthood, but it is assumed that it may still be possible to influence it in childhood.
