TLDR
It is argued that careful analysis of this literature provides evidence for separate neural timing systems associated with opposing task characteristics, the 'automatic' system draws mainly upon motor circuits and the 'cognitively controlled' system depends upon prefrontal and parietal regions.

Neural Representation of Time and Timing Processes

TL;DR: Evidence has indicated that similar brain structures are involved in both subsecond and suprasecond timing, implicating that temporal processing in these two ranges is probably mediated by common neural networks.

Relationship between daily fluctuations of body temperature and the processing of sub-second intervals

TL;DR: Investigating the relationship between daily fluctuations of body temperature and the processing of sub-second intervals provides evidence that the abilities for processing very brief intervals are reliable across the time of the day and are not modulated by the body temperature.

Setting the beat of an internal clock: Effects of dexamphetamine on different interval ranges of temporal processing in healthy volunteers.

TL;DR: Findings in healthy humans indicate that the dexamphetamine-induced increase in the speed of the internal pacemaker was modulated by the basal working memory capacity of each participant, which has important implications for the role of dopamine, and its contributions to timing deficits, in models of psychiatric disorders.

A systematic exploration of temporal bisection models across sub- and supra-second duration ranges

TL;DR: In this article, a comparative evaluation of four different types of models (SKE, PLM, L4P, and DDM) was conducted to assess each model's ability to capture these differences using timing data from the temporal bisection procedure.
Journal ArticleDOI

Perception of temporal duration affected by automatic and controlled movements

TL;DR: The reproduced intervals were shorter when actions were initiated by automatic manner, compared to self-timed or cognitively controlled actions, compatible with an internal clock model employing variable latencies for switch closure after action.

Language within our grasp

TL;DR: It is proposed here that an observation/execution matching system provides a necessary bridge from'doing' to'communicating', as the link between actor and observer becomes a link between the sender and the receiver of each message.

Timing functions of the cerebellum

TL;DR: The results suggest that the domain of the cerebellar timing process is not limited to the motor system, but is employed by other perceptual and cognitive systems when temporally predictive computations are needed.

Where and when to pay attention: the neural systems for directing attention to spatial locations and to time intervals as revealed by both PET and fMRI.

TL;DR: Brain-imaging data revealed a partial overlap between neural systems involved in the performance of spatial versus temporal orientation of attention tasks, and hemispheric asymmetries revealed preferential right and left parietal activation for spatial and temporal attention, respectively.
Journal ArticleDOI

The evolution of brain activation during temporal processing.

TL;DR: A dynamic network of cortical-subcortical activation associated with different components of temporal information processing is illustrated, implicating these systems in attention and temporary maintenance of intervals.
