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.

Heart rate variability helps tracking time more accurately.

TL;DR: Results showed that heart rate variability affects time perception, and the idea that bodily signals may shape the authors' perception of time is supported.

Coordination dynamics and attentional costs of continuous and discontinuous bimanual circle drawing movements.

TL;DR: The finding that in the intermittent circling task reaction time to probes presented during the pause between cycles did not differ from the RT to probes occurring during the circling movement supporting the hypothesis that the two tasks have different underlying control processes.

Duration Adaptation Occurs Across the Sub- and Supra-Second Systems

TL;DR: The results suggest that duration adaptation involves an interval-independent system or two functionally related systems that are associated with both the sub- and supra-second durations.

Neural bases for individual differences in the subjective experience of short durations (less than 2 seconds)

TL;DR: This article found that subjective lengthening of the perceived duration was associated with increased activation in both the right supplementary motor area (SMA) and right pre-SMA and basal ganglia (including the putamen and right pallidum).

Understanding time perception through non-invasive brain stimulation techniques: A review of studies.

TL;DR: It is concluded that the contribution of these strongly interconnected structures in the processing of temporal information is not fixed; their contribution depends not only on the duration of the time interval to be assessed by the brain but also on the cognitive set involved in the chosen task and on the stimulus modality used for marking time.

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.
Journal ArticleDOI

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.
