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.

Minimal Impairment in a Rat Model of Duration Discrimination Following Excitotoxic Lesions of Primary Auditory and Prefrontal Cortices

TL;DR: The behavioral framework presented here provides an audition-based approach to study the neural mechanisms of time estimation and memory for durations and makes neurotoxic lesions of candidate timing-perception areas in the cerebral cortex of both groups.
Journal ArticleDOI

The hippocampus contributes to temporal duration memory in the context of event sequences: A cross-species perspective.

TL;DR: The present review article surveys both historical and recent cross-species evidence emanating from a wide variety of experimental paradigms, identifying areas of convergence and divergence in the mechanisms that may underpin temporal duration memory.

Changing Auditory Time with Prismatic Goggles.

TL;DR: Modulations of auditory time processing as a function of prismatic deviation, which correlated with the interparticipant adaptation effect, reveal a spatial representation of auditoryTime, modulated by spatial attention.

Sex differences in the processing of temporal information in the sub-second range

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors examined sex-related differences in this temporal domain and found that males performed better than females on temporal discrimination of filled intervals and temporal-order judgment, while no indication of a sexrelated difference was found for temporal generalisation.
Journal ArticleDOI

Prefrontal gamma-band activity distinguishes between sound durations.

TL;DR: The analysis of magnetoencephalographic GBA served to identify prefrontal network components underlying the representation of different sound durations during the various phases of a delayed matching-to-sample task.

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.
