Abstract :
[en] Among the theoretical models, Gibbon and Chruch's temporal information processing model is by far the most popular explanatory device in the domain of animal timing, and timing recorded using the peak procedure is considered to reflect pure cognitive time. Neuropharmacological breakthroughs suggest that diferent neurotransmitter systems subserve different functions or stages, as specified by the temporal information proccessing model. Cerebral activations correlated to timing performance have been described in humans. however, several questions remain unanswered, particularly those regarding the specificity of the neutral and biochemical correlates of timing performance. At the behavioral level, the dynamic aspects of timing, as well as timing patterns which cannot be explained within the framework of existing models, deserve a renewal of interest.
