Abstract

Event Abstract Back to Event Keynote Address: Integrating Time and Repetition; The Psychophysiology of Temporal Processing. Timothy W. Budd1* 1 University of Newcastle, School of Psychology, Australia Temporal processing typically refers to our ability to resolve information conveyed within the time-varying properties of sensory stimulation. This unique ability allows us to form a dynamic and coherent perceptual representation of the environment as well as forming the basis for multisensory integration and music and speech perception. In this talk I will review evidence from a range of psychophysiological studies which provide support for the proposal that a better understanding of the complex neural mechanisms underlying temporal processing can be gained by examining the fundamental interaction between time and repetition on sensory measures of brain activity. The focus will be on studies that directly examine the correspondence between perceptual (psychophysical) and neurophysiological measures (EEG, ERP and fMRI) that are exquisitely sensitive to interactions between experimental manipulations of time and repetition. This review will include evidence from human studies in both normal and clinical populations, where a primary dysfunction in the neural mechanisms underlying temporal processing is implicated, as well as corresponding neurophysiological evidence from recent animal studies. Traditional neurophysiological and perceptual models of temporal processing will be evaluated and key emerging approaches described. Directions for future research that offer the potential to capitalise on recent advances in analytic methods in psychophysiology as well as conceptual developments will also be discussed.
