The streams of sounds we typically attend to abound in acoustic regularities. Neural
entrainment is seen as an important mechanism that the listening brain exploits to attune to …

We have come to recognize the brain as a predictive organ, anticipating attributes of the
incoming sensory stimulation to guide perception and action in the service of adaptive …

Selective attention comprises essential infrastructural functions supporting cognition—
anticipating, prioritizing, selecting, routing, integrating, and preparing signals to guide …

The ability to predict when something will happen facilitates sensory processing and the
ensuing computations. Building on the observation that neural activity entrains to periodic …

Highlights•Brain rhythms are often brief and intermittent in time lasting a few cycles or
less.•High power in the average can reflect the accumulated density of transient events on …

Predicting the timing of upcoming events enables efficient resource allocation and action
preparation. Rhythmic streams, such as music, speech, and biological motion, constitute a …

That attention is a fundamentally rhythmic process has recently received abundant empirical
evidence. The essence of temporal attention, however, is to flexibly focus in time. Whether …

In the motor cortex, beta oscillations (∼ 12–30 Hz) are generally considered a principal
rhythm contributing to movement planning and execution. Beta oscillations cohabit and …

Using predictions based on environmental regularities is fundamental for adaptive behavior.
While it is widely accepted that predictions across different stimulus attributes (eg, time and …

When exposed to rhythmic stimulation, the human brain displays rhythmic activity across
sensory modalities and regions. Given the ubiquity of this phenomenon, how sensory …
