Temporal predictability facilitates action, not perception.
Expectancy for upcoming action requirements is a fundamental prerequisite for human control of action. In the research reported here, we investigated which part of cognitive processing benefits from temporal predictability. In a binary forced-choice paradigm, visual targets were preceded by different intervals. In one condition, targets could be predicted by the length of the intervals. In othe...
متن کاملSynaptic encoding of temporal contiguity
Often we need to perform tasks in an environment that changes stochastically. In these situations it is important to learn the statistics of sequences of events in order to predict the future and the outcome of our actions. The statistical description of many of these sequences can be reduced to the set of probabilities that a particular event follows another event (temporal contiguity). Under ...
متن کاملTemporal Contiguity in Cross-Situational Statistical Learning
Recent research has demonstrated that participants often learn a surprising number of word-referent pairings solely from their co-occurrence statistics across individually ambiguous trials. To isolate processes, past designs prevented the same pairing from appearing in two consecutive trials. Yet such temporal contiguity often appears in real world settings, and seems likely to improve learning...
متن کاملTemporal Adaptation and the role of temporal contiguity in spatial behavior
Rapid and accurate interaction with the world requires that proper spatial and temporal alignment between sensory modalities be maintained. The introduction of a misalignment (either spatial or temporal) impairs performance on most spatial tasks. For over a century, it has been known that a few minutes of exposure to a spatial misalignment can induce a "recalibration" of intersensory spatial re...
متن کاملSensorimotor adaptation to violations of temporal contiguity.
Most events are processed by a number of neural pathways. These pathways often differ considerably in processing speed. Thus, coherent perception requires some form of synchronization mechanism. Moreover, this mechanism must be flexible, because neural processing speed changes over the life of an organism. Here we provide behavioral evidence that humans can adapt to a new intersensory temporal ...
