Traditional approaches to human information processing tend to deal with perception and
action planning in isolation, so that an adequate account of the perception-action interface is …

Research into the perception of space, time and quantity has generated three separate
literatures. That number can be represented spatially is, of course, well accepted and forms …

Evidence for a dichotomy between the planning of an action and its on-line control in
humans is reviewed. This evidence suggests that planning and control each serve a …

We present a view of the posterior parietal cortex (PPC) as a sensorimotor interface for
visually guided movements. Special attention is given to the role of the PPC in arm …

Two major functions of the visual system are discussed and contrasted. One function of
vision is the creation of an internal model or percept of the external world. Most research in …

Many authors have alluded to the idea that Milner and Goodale's (1995) distinction between
a ventral system for perception and a dorsal system for action is directly relevant for the …

It is long known that the posterior parietal cortex (PPC) is critically involved in goal-directed
movements. Nevertheless, there are still some controversies about its specific functions …

Adaptation to tempo changes in sensorimotor synchronization is hypothesized to rest on two
processes, one (phase correction) being largely automatic and the other (period correction) …
