Interval timing in the seconds‐to‐minutes range is believed to underlie a variety of complex
behaviors in humans and other animals. One of the more interesting problems in interval …

Experiments investigating timing behaviour in humans under conditions where body
temperature was raised or (much more rarely) lowered, dating from 1927 to 1993, were …

This study presents a dynamic model of how animals learn to regulate their behavior under
time-based reinforcement schedules. The model assumes a serial activation of behavioral …

Four experiments investigated the effect of trains of clicks (usually 5 sec long and at 5 or 25
Hz) on subjective duration in humans, as previous research had suggested that such a …

Time is a fundamental dimension of our perception of the world and is therefore of critical
importance to the organization of human behavior. A corpus of work—including recent …

Publisher Summary This chapter interprets Aristotle's four causes, which he called material,
final, efficient, and formal as questions about what (description/definition and substrate), why …

In the last decades, researchers have proposed a large number of theoretical models of
timing. These models make different assumptions concerning how animals learn to time …

Behavioral and pharmacological challenges using methamphetamine (MAP-0.5 and 1.0
mg/kg, ip), haloperidol (HAL-0.12 mg/kg, ip), and sulfated cholecystokinin octapeptide (CCK …

Slow-timescale (tonic) changes in dopamine (DA) contribute to a wide variety of processes
in reinforcement learning, interval timing, and other domains. Furthermore, changes in tonic …

Abstract The effects of clozapine (0.6, 1.2, and 2.4 mg/kg) and haloperidol (0.03, 0.06, and
0.12 mg/kg) on the timing of 10, 30, and 90-s intervals were characterized in rats. Each …
