Temporal Error Monitoring
Recent evidence shows that humans and rats can monitor their timing errors, namely “temporal error monitoring”. In the first part of this talk, I will present new evidence corroborating these observations in two mice studies. First study shows monitoring of temporal control, forming a rudimentary temporal error monitoring. The second study demonstrates a refined magnitude-based error monitoring. Together, these results demonstrate the nested architecture of temporal awareness. Next, I will present two drift-diffusion models of temporal error monitoring. First model affords the etrospective detection of timing errors, whereas the second model reads out and anticipates timing errors. Notably, second model affords the translation of real-time error signals into improved timing without violating psychophysical features of timing behavior. Finally, the task representation dependency of the refinement element accounts for the widely reported reward-rate maximizing timing behavior. Ultimately, this talk signifies the maturing empirical and theoretical scenery in temporal error monitoring research.
