Time for What? Breaking Down Temporal Anticipation

Nir Shalev et al. Trends Neurosci. 2019 Jun.

Abstract

A variety of environmental regularities enable us to anticipate the timing of upcoming sensations and actions. A recent article (Breska and Ivry, Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. U. S. A. 2018;115:12283-12288) reports a striking neural double dissociation between two distinct varieties of temporal anticipation. Looking forward, we consider further dissociations according to the goals for which temporal anticipation is used.

Keywords: Parkinson’s disease; action; association; attention; basal ganglia; cerebellar degeneration; cerebellum; cognition; double dissociation; interval judgement; orienting; perception; performance; regularity; rhythm; temporal processing.
