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.

Stimulus onset predictability modulates proactive action control in a Go/No-go task.

TL;DR: The results suggest that different pre-stimulus processing come into play in the two conditions, and hypothesize that the large prefrontal and premotor activities recorded with external visual cues index the monitoring of the external stimuli in order to finely regulate the action.
Journal ArticleDOI

The common rate control account of prediction motion

TL;DR: There is increasing evidence that the brain has a common rate control module for pacing all dynamic mental simulations, and neuroimaging work suggests that the common rate controller is a part of a core timing network that incorporates basal ganglia circuitry.
Journal ArticleDOI

Compression of time during smooth pursuit eye movements

TL;DR: It is found that perceived duration is also affected by the execution of smooth pursuit eye movements, showing a compression of apparent duration similar to that observed during saccades, arguing for a modality-specific component in the processing of temporal information.
Journal ArticleDOI

Modulation of neural circuits underlying temporal production by facial expressions of pain.

TL;DR: The hypothesis that observing emotional expressions distorts subjective time perception through the interaction of the neural network subserving processing of facial expressions with the brain network involved in timing is supported.

Keeping an eye on the conductor: neural correlates of visuo-motor synchronization and musical experience

TL;DR: FMRI measurement showed greater activity in the anterior part of the left superior frontal gyrus in musicians with more frequent practice under a conductor, suggesting that orchestra musicians have developed an advanced ability to predict conductor’s next action from the gestures.

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.
