Two types of time perception in synchronization tapping task

Synchronization tapping task is one of the experimental tasks to research predictive action. In former studies, inter stimulus-onset interval (ISI) was used as a control parameter. However the method cannot investigate the perception process of synchronization error (SE). In this study, we used SE as control parameter. As a result, two types of time perceptions were observed. These were shown as continuous and discontinuous SE dependent of predictive action.
