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.

Rapid Communication Dysfunctional supplementary motor area implication during attention and time estimation tasks in schizophrenia: a PET-O15 water study

TL;DR: Results of this PET-O15 water activation study confirm the implication of supplementary motor areas during time estimation tasks and show that the cortical-subcortical network associated with temporal processing is impaired in schizophrenia.

Processing magnitudes within the parietal cortex

TL;DR: This chapter reviews the many recent behavioural, lesional and brain imaging studies demonstrating functional interactions, as well as the cerebral bases underlying magnitude processing in humans and, when relevant, in monkeys, and makes it clear that the areas around the intraparietal sulcus host both common and partially distinct and specific representations and mechanisms for numerosity, space and duration processing.

Doença crónica: intervenção do médico de família para limitar as repercussões na pessoa e na família

TL;DR: This dissertation focuses on the impact of chronic disease in the sick person and his family, it analyzes the context of factors that influence and identifies types of medical interventions that promote adaptive responses to disease.

The timing of regular sequences: Production, perception, and covariation

TL;DR: The results show that specific aspects of the ability to time a regular sequence of events in production covary with the abilityto time aregular sequence in perception, probably pointing toward the engagement of domain-general mechanisms.
Journal ArticleDOI

The genetic architecture of correlations between perceptual timing, motor timing, and intelligence

TL;DR: It is concluded that genetic factors underlying intelligence may involve genes which influence brain properties of importance for the temporal accuracy of neural processing, as well as additional genetic covariation between the two timing tasks that was not shared with intelligence.

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.

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.
