Abstract: Emotions modulate behavioral priorities based on exteroceptive and interoceptive inputs, and the related central andperipheral changes may be experienced subjectively. Yet, it remains unresolved whether the perceptual and subjec-tively felt components of the emotion processes rely on shared brain mechanisms. We applied functional magneticresonance imaging, a rich set of emotional movies, and high-dimensional, continuous ratings of perceived and feltemotions in the movies to investigate their cerebral organization. Emotions evoked during natural movie scene per-ception were represented in the brain across numerous spatial scales and patterns. Perceived and felt emotionsgeneralized both between individuals and between different stimuli depicting the same emotions. The neural affectivespace demonstrated an anatomical gradient from emotion-general responses in polysensory areas and default moderegions to more emotion-specific discrete processing in subcortical regions. Differences in brain activation during feltand perceived emotions suggest that temporoparietal areas and precuneus have a key role in evaluating the affectivevalue of the sensory input, and subjective emotional state generation is associated with further and significantly stron-ger recruitment of the temporoparietal junction, anterior prefrontal cortices, cerebellum, and thalamus. These datareveal the similarities and differences of domain- general and emotion-specific affect networks in the brain during awide range of perceived and felt emotions.
