“…Underestimation of final occluded number was significantly larger in the dual task block, however the overall pattern of results was one of equivalence. This is a challenge for the common rate control model [11,12] which implies that there should be costly interference effects in the dual task condition. Exactly how challenging is this null result for CRC?…”

“…In particular, it is superior to production tasks, where the occluder is visible and participants have to press a button at the end of occlusion interval [22,39]. It may also be superior to interruption paradigms (where participants judge the target reappearance error as being too early or too late) because these can be successfully solved by observers using multiple strategies [11]. We suggest the postocclusion beep procedure is the best way to force rate-controlled simulation of dynamic occluded processes.…”

“…First, position task data was analysed with 2-factor ANOVAs [2 Block (single, dual) X 4 Final occluded angle (63, 81, 99, 117 degrees)]. Then number task data was 8 analysed with separate 2-factor ANOVAs [2 Block (single, dual) X 4 Final occluded number (7,9,11,13)]. For all ANOVA analysis, the Greenhouse-Geisser correction factor was used when the assumption sphericity was violated.…”

“…Others have investigated behavioural judgements about occluded moving objects. Authors refer to this as 'time to contact estimation', 'prediction-motion' or 'motion extrapolation', partly reflecting their methodology and/or theoretical assumptions [11,12].…”

“…Local predictive mechanisms probably exist [47,48], however Makin and Bertamini (2014) and Makin and Chauhan (2014) found that performance was similar in different feature spaces, and thus tentatively argued for the common rate control account. Makin [11] suggested that local predictive mechanisms cover very short occlusions (< 200 ms) but the common rate controller takes over for longer occlusions.…”

People can track moving objects after they disappear or become occluded. For instance, they can estimate the position of a car after it goes behind a truck. People can also track through feature space after occlusion. For instance, they can estimate the current number on a hidden stopwatch. Previous work has suggest that a common rate control module paces mental updating in both physical space and number-space. We tested this by comparing single and dual task conditions. On every trial, participants observed a moving target-counter travel clockwise round a circular track. In the then disappeared for 2, 4, 6 or 8 seconds, and beep sounded. In the single task blocks, participants either estimated the final position or the final number. In the dual task block, they estimated final position and final number. Performance was very similar in single and dual task blocks. This suggests people can extrapolate through physical space and number space simultaneously. This is a challenge to the common rate control model, which implies there should be some dual task interference. We conclude that if a common rate controller exists, it is capable of pacing simultaneous mental simulations in different dimensions.

Time-to-contact (TTC) perception refers to the ability of an observer to estimate the remaining time before an object reaches a point in the environment, and is of crucial importance in daily life. Noninvasive correlational approaches have identified several brain areas sensitive to TTC information. Here we report the results of two studies, including one during an awake brain surgery, that aimed to identify the specific areas causally engaged in the TTC estimation process. In Study 1, we tested 40 patients with brain tumor in a TTC estimation task. The results showed that four of

An observer willing to cross a street must first estimate if the approaching cars offer enough time to safely complete the task. The brain areas supporting this perception, known as Time‐To‐Contact (TTC) perception, have been mainly studied through noninvasive correlational approaches. We carried out an experiment in which patients were tested during an awake brain surgery electrostimulation mapping to examine the causal implication of various brain areas in the street‐crossing decision process. Forty patients were tested in a gap acceptance task before their surgery to establish a baseline performance. The task was individually adapted upon this baseline level and carried out during their surgery. We acquired and normalized to MNI space the coordinates of the functional areas that influenced task performance. A total of 103 stimulation sites were tested, allowing to establish a large map of the areas involved in the street‐crossing decision. Multiple sites were found to impact the gap acceptance decision. A direct implication was however found mostly for sites within the right parietal lobe, while indirect implication was found for sites within the language, motor, or attentional networks. The right parietal lobe can be considered as causally influencing the gap acceptance decision. Other positive sites were all accompanied with dysfunction in other cognitive functions, and therefore should probably not be considered as the site of TTC estimation.
