TL;DR: The findings show that automatic temporal preparation, as induced by a rhythm, can help frontal patients to make effective use of implicit temporal information to respond at the optimum time.

TL;DR: It was found that adolescents performed better than adults in both the time discrimination task and the time reproduction task and that adults tended to overestimate the duration of the target stimuli while adolescents were more likely to underestimate it.

TL;DR: The results suggest that increased arousal and attention, when anticipating and experiencing pain, result in longer perceived durations, which are discussed in relation to internal clock theory and neurocognitive models of time perception.
Abstract: The overestimation of the duration of fear-inducing stimuli relative to neutral stimuli is a robust finding within the temporal perception literature. Whilst this effect is consistently reported with auditory and visual stimuli, there has been little examination of whether it can be replicated using painful stimulation. The aim of the current study was, therefore, to explore how pain and the anticipation of pain affected perceived duration of time. A modified verbal estimation paradigm was developed in which participants estimated the duration of shapes previously conditioned to be associated with pain, compared to those not associated with pain. Duration estimates were significantly longer on trials in which pain was received or anticipated than on control trials. Slope and intercept analysis revealed that the anticipation of pain resulted in steeper slopes and greater intercept values than for control trials. The results suggest that increased arousal and attention, when anticipating and experiencing pain, result in longer perceived durations. The results are discussed in relation to internal clock theory and neurocognitive models of time perception.

TL;DR: Results suggest that behavioral difficulties on time processing tasks in schizophrenia may reflect a physiological deficit in temporal perception in this population rather than simply more general difficulties in attention or motivation.
Abstract: Temporal processing deficits have been noted in behavioral studies assessing patients with schizophrenia. The current study sought to explore the physiology of temporal perception while controlling the effects of motivation, attention and other cognitive processes that may contribute to behavioral measures of temporal processing. Mismatch negativity (MMN) waveforms were measured in response to variations in the temporal parameters of an ongoing train of pure tones. A standard inter-stimulus interval of 400 ms was interrupted, on average, every 20th tone by an inter-stimulus interval of 340 ms. Amplitude of MMN waveform elicited by the temporal deviance was significantly reduced in the schizophrenia group compared with controls (p = 0.016). Results suggest that behavioral difficulties on time processing tasks in schizophrenia may reflect a physiological deficit in temporal perception in this population rather than simply more general difficulties in attention or motivation.

TL;DR: Single‐case evidence is presented that poor beat tracking does not have to entail poor synchronization, and that separate pathways may subserve beat perception depending on the explicit/implicit nature of a task in a sample of beat‐deaf participants.
