Temporal Anticipation Under Cognitive Stress

Temporal Anticipation Based on Memory

The fundamental role that our long-term memories play in guiding perception is increasingly recognized, but the functional and neural mechanisms are just beginning to be explored. Although experimental approaches are being developed to investigate the influence of long-term memories on perception, these remain mostly static and neglect their temporal and dynamic nature. Here, we show that our l...

Auditory Neuroscience: Temporal Anticipation Enhances Cortical Processing

A recent study shows that expectation about the timing of behaviorally-relevant sounds enhances the responses of neurons in the primary auditory cortex and improves the accuracy and speed with which animals respond to those sounds.

Anticipation in Conference Interpreting: A Cognitive Process

In conference interpretation research, anticipation is usually seen as the oral production of a particular part of a message in special circumstances. In psychophysiological research, however, anticipation is a mental process. The article presents a revised defmition of anticipation that takes account of both approaches. It does so in terms of delibérate enrichment, a conceptual tool from relev...

Anticipation in innovative investment under oligopolistic competition

We study firms' optimal investment behavior in a dynamic duopoly framework. Embodied technological progress makes later generations more productive. The resulting model is a differential game combined with a vintage capital goods structure. Since such a framework has not been analyzed before, existing concepts have to be modified. Our numerical analysis first shows that a technological breakthr...
