Traditional approaches to human information processing tend to deal with perception and
action planning in isolation, so that an adequate account of the perception-action interface is …

First, we discuss issues raised with respect to the Theory of Event Coding (TEC)'s scope,
that is, its limitations and possible extensions. Then, we address the issue of specificity, that …

The primate brain codes perceived events in a distributed fashion, which raises the question
of how the codes referring to the same event are related to each other. Recent findings …

To describe phenomena that occur at different time scales, computational models of the
brain must incorporate different levels of abstraction. At time scales of approximately 1/3 of a …

Prior to the twentieth century, theories of knowledge were inherently perceptual. Since then,
developments in logic, statistics, and programming languages have inspired amodal …

This article responds to two unresolved and crucial problems of cognitive science:(1) What is
actually accomplished by functions of the nervous system that we ordinarily describe in the …

This article provides an update of the Theory of Event Coding (TEC), which claims that
perception and action are identical processes operating on the same codes–event files …

“Neural coding” is a popular metaphor in neuroscience, where objective properties of the
world are communicated to the brain in the form of spikes. Here I argue that this metaphor is …

Brains, it has recently been argued, are essentially prediction machines. They are bundles
of cells that support perception and action by constantly attempting to match incoming …

Our ability to generate actions and to recognize actions performed by others is the bedrock
of our social life. Behavioral evidence suggests that the processes underlying perception …
