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

The ADaptation and Anticipation Model (ADAM) of sensorimotor synchronization
TL;DR: The conceptual basis and architecture of ADAM is described, which combines reactive error correction processes (adaptation) with predictive temporal extrapolation processes (anticipation) inspired by the computational neuroscience concept of internal models and creates a novel and promising approach for exploring adaptation and anticipation in SMS.

The evolutionary neuroscience of musical beat perception: the Action Simulation for Auditory Prediction (ASAP) hypothesis
TL;DR: It is argued that beat perception is a complex brain function involving temporally-precise communication between auditory regions and motor planning regions of the cortex (even in the absence of overt movement), and it is proposed that simulation of periodic movement inMotor planning regions provides a neural signal that helps the auditory system predict the timing of upcoming beats.

Embodied music cognition and mediation technology
Peter E. Keller,Petr Janata +1 more
TL;DR: In this paper, Leman examines how these developments might be unified into something that is simultaneously a theory of music cognition and a blueprint for the music mediation technology of the future, and the main mediating principle elaborated on in the monograph, which is more intellectual discourse than textbook, is rooted in the belief that musical interactions are socially charged, embodied affairs.

Finding the beat: a neural perspective across humans and non-human primates
TL;DR: It is suggested that a cross-species comparison of behaviours and the neural circuits supporting them sets the stage for a new generation of neurally grounded computational models for beat perception and synchronization.

Rhythm in joint action: psychological and neurophysiological mechanisms for real-time interpersonal coordination.
TL;DR: This review article addresses the psychological processes and brain mechanisms that enable rhythmic interpersonal coordination and highlights musical ensemble performance as an ecologically valid yet readily controlled domain for investigating rhythm in joint action.

Statistical Analysis of Human Body Movement and Group Interactions in Response to Music
TL;DR: In this article, different statistical techniques were applied to time-dependent data obtained from an experiment on embodied listening in individual and group settings, and it was found that synchronicity of movements between individuals (human-human interactions) increases significantly in the social context.
Journal ArticleDOI
An internal clock for predictive saccades is established identically by auditory or visual information
TL;DR: The results suggest that (1) an internal timing reference (clock) can be established by either auditory or visual information and (2) during predictive tracking the variability in saccade timing is due to the variabilityIn the internal timing representation, while during reactive tracking the Variability in sAccade timing depends on the sensory modality used to trigger the saccades.

A data-analysis method for decomposing synchronization variability of anticipatory systems into stochastic and deterministic components
TL;DR: A data analysis method for estimating parameters associated with deterministic and stochastic components of synchronization error in the case where a slave system synchronizes with the future of a master system, so-called anticipating synchronization.

Flexibility of temporal expectations for triple subdivision of a beat.
Bruno H. Repp,Haitham Jendoubi +1 more
TL;DR: The present study finds weak evidence for latent expectancies but strong evidence for context-induced shifts in expectancies, and shows that temporal referents between beats are flexible and context-dependent.

Avian and human movement to music: Two further parallels
TL;DR: The tendency to dance to music at a preferred tempo, and to synchronize best when the music is near this tempo, parallels how young humans move to music, and support the idea that avian and human synchronization to music have similar neurobiological foundations.
