TLDR
It is evident that much new knowledge about SMS has been acquired in the last 7 years, and more recent research in what appears to be a burgeoning field is surveyed.Abstract:
Sensorimotor synchronization (SMS) is the coordination of rhythmic movement with an external rhythm, ranging from finger tapping in time with a metronome to musical ensemble performance. An earlier review (Repp, 2005) covered tapping studies; two additional reviews (Repp, 2006a, b) focused on music performance and on rate limits of SMS, respectively. The present article supplements and extends these earlier reviews by surveying more recent research in what appears to be a burgeoning field. The article comprises four parts, dealing with (1) conventional tapping studies, (2) other forms of moving in synchrony with external rhythms (including dance and nonhuman animals’ synchronization abilities), (3) interpersonal synchronization (including musical ensemble performance), and (4) the neuroscience of SMS. It is evident that much new knowledge about SMS has been acquired in the last 7 years.read more

Behavioral and multimodal neuroimaging evidence for a deficit in brain timing networks in stuttering: a hypothesis and theory.
TL;DR: It is proposed that a deficit in brain timing networks is one of the core neurophysiological deficits in stuttering and a role for this structure in an expanded core timing-network is suggested.

Temporal Prediction in lieu of Periodic Stimulation
Benjamin Morillon,Benjamin Morillon,Charles E. Schroeder,Charles E. Schroeder,Valentin Wyart,Luc H. Arnal +5 more
TL;DR: In two behavioral experiments on human participants, it is found that periodic stimulation facilitates response readiness, whereas temporal predictions improve the precision of auditory processing, which arises regardless of the nature of temporal regularities, but depends on the co-occurrence of a fulfilled spectral prediction.

The Role of Embodiment in the Perception of Music
Marc Leman,Pieter-Jan Maes +1 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors present recent and on-going research in the field of embodied music cognition, with a focus on studies conducted at IPEM, the research laboratory in systematic musicology at Ghent University, Belgium.
Compatibility of Motion Facilitates Visuomotor Synchronization
TL;DR: In this article, three finger-tapping experiments were conducted with visual metronomes containing a spatial component, either compatible, incompatible, or orthogonal to the tapping action, and the results indicated that visuomotor synchronization improves dramatically with compatible spatial information.

Hunting for the beat in the body: on period and phase locking in music-induced movement
TL;DR: Two experiments dealing with period locking to different metrical levels in full-body movement and its relationships to beat- and rhythm-related musical characteristics, and the other dealing with phase locking in the more constrained condition of sideways swaying motions imply that entrainment to music is a complex phenomenon, involving the whole body and occurring at different meetrical levels.

The cortical organization of speech processing
Gregory Hickok,David Poeppel +1 more
TL;DR: A dual-stream model of speech processing is outlined that assumes that the ventral stream is largely bilaterally organized — although there are important computational differences between the left- and right-hemisphere systems — and that the dorsal stream is strongly left- Hemisphere dominant.
Book
Auditory Scene Analysis: The Perceptual Organization of Sound
TL;DR: Auditory Scene Analysis as discussed by the authors addresses the problem of hearing complex auditory environments, using a series of creative analogies to describe the process required of the human auditory system as it analyzes mixtures of sounds to recover descriptions of individual sounds.
Book
Statistical Analysis of Circular Data
TL;DR: This book presents a meta-modelling framework for analysing two or more samples of unimodal data from von Mises distributions, and some modern Statistical Techniques for Testing and Estimation used in this study.
Journal ArticleDOI
A theoretical model of phase transitions in human hand movements
TL;DR: A theoretical model, using concepts central to the interdisciplinary field of synergetics and nonlinear oscillator theory, is developed, which reproduces the dramatic change in coordinative pattern observed between the hands.

What makes us tick? Functional and neural mechanisms of interval timing
Catalin V. Buhusi,Warren H. Meck +1 more
TL;DR: It is proposed that the brain represents time in a distributed manner and tells the time by detecting the coincidental activation of different neural populations.
