How movements shape the perception of time

R De Kock, KA Gladhill, MN Ali, WM Joiner… - Trends in Cognitive …, 2021 - cell.com
In order to keep up with a changing environment, mobile organisms must be capable of
deciding both where and when to move. This precision necessitates a strong sense of time …

When to act, or not to act: that's the SMA's question

JT Coull, F Vidal, B Burle - Current Opinion in Behavioral Sciences, 2016 - Elsevier
Highlights•SMA is implicated in response selection and inhibition.•SMA is implicated in
perceptual and motor timing.•SMA amplitude codes for stimulus duration and for error …

Explicit understanding of duration develops implicitly through action

JT Coull, S Droit-Volet - Trends in cognitive sciences, 2018 - cell.com
Time is relative. Changes in cognitive state or sensory context make it appear to speed up or
slow down. Our perception of time is a rather fragile mental construct derived from the way …

An evidenced-based perspective on the validity of attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder in the context of high intelligence

N Rommelse, M van der Kruijs, J Damhuis… - Neuroscience & …, 2016 - Elsevier
Abstract The validity of Attention-Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) in individuals with
high intelligence is disputed, since high intelligence may 'mimic'the symptoms of ADHD in …

Neural microstates govern perception of auditory input without rhythmic structure

MJ Henry, B Herrmann, J Obleser - Journal of Neuroscience, 2016 - Soc Neuroscience
Human perception fluctuates with the phase of neural oscillations in the presence of
environmental rhythmic structure by which neural oscillations become entrained. However …

The beneficial effect of synchronized action on motor and perceptual timing in children

F Monier, S Droit‐Volet, JT Coull - Developmental Science, 2019 - Wiley Online Library
We examined the role of action in motor and perceptual timing across development. Adults
and children aged 5 or 8 years old learned the duration of a rhythmic interval with or without …

The Motor of Time: Coupling Action to Temporally Predictable Events Heightens Perception

JT Coull, I Korolczuk, B Morillon - Neurobiology of Interval Timing, 2024 - Springer
Timing and motor function share neural circuits and dynamics, which underpin their close
and synergistic relationship. For instance, the temporal predictability of a sensory event …

Embodiment and the origin of interval timing: kinematic and electromyographic data

C Addyman, S Rocha, L Fautrelle, RM French… - Experimental brain …, 2017 - Springer
Recent evidence suggests that interval timing (the judgment of durations lasting from
approximately 500 ms. to a few minutes) is closely coupled to the action control system. We …

Having your cake and eating it: Faster responses with reduced muscular activation while learning a temporal interval

E Thomas, R French, G Alizee, JT Coull - Neuroscience, 2019 - Elsevier
We examined how motor responses to a stimulus evolve as individuals learn to predict when
a stimulus will appear, by comparing responses to a regular versus irregular stimulus train …

The internal representation of temporal orienting: A temporal pulse-accumulation and attentional-gating-based account

X Cheng, Y Mao, Y Lei, C Lin, C Lou, Z Fan… - Attention, Perception, & …, 2021 - Springer
Timing can be processed explicitly or implicitly. Temporal orienting is a typical implicit timing
through which we can anticipate and prepare an optimized response to forthcoming events …
