Andre M. Cravo completed his undergraduate degree in psychology in 2005 at University of São Paulo and his Ph.D. in the same University in 2012, with an internship at the University of Oxford. From 2011 to 2012 he was a Postdoctoral Associate at the Institute of Radiology, FMUSP. He is currently Assistant Professor in the Center for Mathematics, Computation and Cognition at Universidade Federal do ABC. He has experience in Neuroscience and Cognition, with emphasis in eletroencefalography and psychophysics. (Source: Lattes Curriculum)

Time is a central determinant of our interaction with the environment. It allows organisms to keep track of what is happening when in the world around them, as well as to them. Our ability to process time is a multi-faceted: On the one hand, we can track the time of occurrence of one event with respect to another; we can judge, for example, whether lightning preceded or followed thunder,…
Humans and nonhuman animals are able to estimate time intervals of different durations. Intervals from hundreds of milliseconds to seconds are especially important for sensory, motor, and cognitive processes. Although there are a number of theoretical models to explain how temporal processing takes place on this scale, the mechanisms underlying this processing are still largely unknown. O…

Temporal perception plays a crucial role in everyday life, allowing us to understand the passage of time, plan actions and perceive their consequences. However, this ability is altered in Attention-Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD). The diagnosis process for this disorder is long and in the adult population can be difficult, as patients seem to learn to adapt to their symptoms. Given …
Establishing cause-and-effect relationships between events is extremely important for survival. Closely linked to this ability is temporal perception, in a way that temporal relationships between events allow causality to be inferred. Interestingly, the inverse modulation can occur: knowing that two events are causally related to each other makes the time between them seem shorter than it…
Two essential processes for the interaction between humans and their environment are voluntary actions and temporal preparation (or temporal expectation). Individuals navigate in their environment through voluntary actions and interact with the effects of those actions. At the same time, they build expectations about the stimuli with which they are presented, including expectations about …
Subjective time is a multidimensional phenomenon that encompasses interdependent intraindividual skills and processes. In this study, we aim to adapt the Time Attitudes Inventory and the Adolescent and Adult Time Attitude Scale (AATAS) to the Brazilian context. Participants will be 600 Brazilian adults. The Time Attitudes Inventory, the AATAS, the Zimbardo Temporal Perspective Inventory, …
Visual stimuli on the current trial are biased towards the content of similar visual stimuli on the previous trial. This effect named serial dependency appears in memory tasks for a variety of visual stimuli and also in interception tasks with moving objects. The existence of serial dependency is frequently justified by the spatio-temporal regularities and stabilities in the position and …
Time perception is one of the most important skills for living beings and is crucial for the survival of various species. Two of the main skills related to time perception are interval timing (the ability to measure the duration between two events) and occurrence timing (the ability to precise a time when a particular event occurred). Although these are essential abilities, we know that t…

In our interactions with the environment, we must often prepare to respond to stimuli initiated not only by the external world but also by our voluntary actions. Previous studies have shown that temporal preparation for visual stimuli changes when those stimuli are initiated by voluntary actions compared to when they are initiated by the external environment. Crucially, this change seems …
Time perception is an essential skill for living beings. Two of the primary skills related to time perception are interval timing (the ability to measure the duration between two events) and occurrence timing (the ability to precise a time when a particular event occurred). Although these are essential abilities, we know that they are subject to bias and distortion. Haggard et al. (2002) …
Attention is fundamental to optimize the computational capacity of a biological system. Several studies have shown that humans and non-humans animals process targets more efficiently when they are presented at expected moments. A possible mechanism for such facilitation is the pre-activation of receptive fields at the relevant moments. However, the nature of this pre-activation remains la…
