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.

Development of time sensitivity and information processing speed.

TL;DR: The faster the information processing speed of the participants, the higher their sensitivity to time was, and the idea that the development of temporal capacities has its roots in the maturation of the dynamic functioning of the brain is discussed.
Journal ArticleDOI

Passage of time judgments in everyday life are not related to duration judgments except for long durations of several minutes

TL;DR: The results replicated others showing that affective states and the focus of attention on current activity are significant predictors of individual differences in passage-of-time judgments.

Cerebellum and Timing

Neural correlates of audiovisual temporal processing--comparison of temporal order and simultaneity judgments.

TL;DR: The results suggest that the TOJ task requires recruitment of additional cognitive operations in comparison to SJ task, probably associated with forming representations of stimuli as separate and temporally ordered sensory events.
Journal ArticleDOI

Sma selectively codes the active accumulation of temporal, not spatial, magnitude

TL;DR: The results indicate that SMA responds to the active accumulation of information selectively in the temporal domain, as well as right inferior occipital cortex, which correlated with individual differences in the propensity to overestimate stimulus duration.

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.
