Pathophysiological distortions in time perception and timed performance
Melissa J. Allman,Warren H. Meck +1 more
TL;DR: These findings are used to evaluate the Striatal Beat Frequency Theory, which is a neurobiological model of interval timing based upon the coincidence detection of oscillatory processes in corticostriatal circuits that can be mapped onto the stages of information processing proposed by Scalar Timing Theory.
Journal ArticleDOI
Properties of the Internal Clock: First- and Second-Order Principles of Subjective Time
TL;DR: This review summarizes recent behavioral and neurobiological findings and provides a theoretical framework for considering how changes in the properties of the internal clock impact time perception and other psychological domains.
Journal ArticleDOI
Development and validation of the Arizona Cognitive Test Battery for Down syndrome
Jamie O. Edgin,Gina M. Mason,Melissa J. Allman,George T. Capone,Iser G. DeLeon,Cheryl L. Maslen,Roger H. Reeves,Stephanie L. Sherman,Lynn Nadel +8 more
TL;DR: The Arizona Cognitive Test Battery (ACTB) was developed specifically to assess the cognitive phenotype in Down syndrome and provided consistent results across contexts, including home vs. lab visits, cross-site, and among individuals with a wide range of socio-economic backgrounds and differences in ethnicity.
Journal ArticleDOI
Psychophysical assessment of timing in individuals with autism.
TL;DR: The authors used two versions of a temporal bisection procedure to study the perception of duration in individuals with autism and observed quantifiable differences and characteristic patterns in participants' timing functions.
Developmental neuroscience of time and number: implications for autism and other neurodevelopmental
TL;DR: A review of the development of time and number sense across infancy and childhood, and neuropsychological findings as they relate to time and counting discrimination in infants and adults is presented in this article, couched within a mode-control model of timing and counting which assumes time and numbers share a common magnitude representation system.
