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)

This project investigates how the brain processes abstract quantities-time and number-and whether this information is encoded by distinct neural networks or shares a common code. Critical gaps remain regarding when these representations are specific versus integrated, how different cognitive demands shape this integration, and how this information evolves beyond initial encoding. The proj…
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…

This work plan outlines the master's research activities for Experiment 02-Univariate and multivariate processing of temporal and numerical information-within the project "Flexibility and Specificity in the Neural Processing of Magnitudes." The student will investigate how the brain integrates information regarding time and number during decision-making, examining whether a dissociation e…
This work plan outlines the master's degree activities for Experiment 01-Task-Dependent Flexibility in Quantity Processing - within the project "Flexibility and Specificity in the Neural Processing of Quantities." The fellow will investigate how the central nervous system encodes information about time and number in different task contexts (estimation vs. discrimination) and at different …
This work plan describes the undergraduate activities for Experiment 01, "Flexibility of processing quantities as a function of the task". The undergraduate student will work in close collaboration with the master's student responsible for the experiment, developing skills in computational cognitive neuroscience. Specifically, the student will receive practical training in: (i) electroenc…

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 …
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 …

Temporal perception is a crucial cognitive function underpinning numerous neurocognitive processes, including decision-making, action planning, and multisensory integration. Experimental paradigms such as temporal orienting and foreperiod tasks have been widely employed to examine how individuals adapt to temporal expectations. However, despite their robust within-subject effects, interin…
Temporal perception is a fundamental cognitive process that guides motor control, yet the neural mechanisms underlying implicit timing and their influence on motor inhibition remain incompletely understood. This study will investigate how temporal predictability modulates inhibitory control in the motor cortex. Using functional magnetic resonance imaging and electromyography, we will anal…
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 …
