Neural mechanisms supporting time perception in continuously changing sensory environments may be relevant to a broader understanding of how the human brain utilizes time in cognition and action. In this review, we describe current theories of sensorimotor engagement in the support of subsecond timing. We focus on musical timing due to the extensive literature surrounding movement with and perception of musical rhythms. First, we define commonly used but ambiguous concepts including neural entrainment, simulation, and prediction in the context of musical timing. Next, we summarize the literature on sensorimotor timing during perception and performance and describe current theories of sensorimotor engagement in the support of subsecond timing. We review the evidence supporting that sensorimotor engagement is critical in accurate time perception. Finally, potential clinical implications for a sensorimotor perspective of timing are highlighted.
在不断变化的感官环境中支持时间感知的神经机制，可能与更广泛地理解人类大脑如何在认知和行动中利用时间有关。在这篇综述中，我们描述了当前关于感觉运动参与支持亚秒级计时的理论。由于围绕音乐节奏的运动和感知有大量文献，我们将重点放在音乐计时上。首先，我们在音乐计时的背景下定义常用但模糊的概念，包括神经夹带、模拟和预测。接下来，我们总结关于感知和表演过程中感觉运动计时的文献，并描述当前关于感觉运动参与支持亚秒级计时的理论。我们回顾支持感觉运动参与在准确时间感知中至关重要的证据。最后，强调了从感觉运动角度看待计时的潜在临床意义。
