73rd Annual Nebraska Symposium on Motivation
The Intersection of Interoception, Conditioning, and Motivation on Addiction, Health, and Well-being
April 16-17, 2026 | City Campus Union
Organized by Rick Bevins & Joyce Besheer
Interoceptive signals, whether consciously perceived or not, play a critical role in shaping behavior, motivation, and overall well-being. As the field of interoceptive conditioning approaches its 100-year anniversary, the 2026 Nebraska Symposium on Motivation will explore how these internal stimuli, influenced by environmental conditioning processes, impact addiction, mental health, and disease. Titled “The Intersection of Interoception, Conditioning, and Motivation on Addiction, Health, and Well-being,” this symposium will bring together leading researchers to provide timely insights into the clinical and theoretical significance of interoceptive processing and its role in shaping behavior.
