The effect of auditory rhythm on the temporal allocation of visual attention in aging by Zhihan Xu, Juan Huang, Yuxuan Shen, Yanna Ren, Yulin Gao, Ting Guo

“…Moreover, whether the cross-modal temporal expectation effect in aging is influenced by tempo has not yet been explored.MethodsTo address these issues, both younger and older participants performed a rhythmic temporal expectation task in which auditory isochronous rhythms, presented at either 600 ms (faster) or 1,400 ms (slower) tempo, were used to trigger temporal expectation for a visual target.ResultsThe results demonstrated a cross-modal temporal expectation effect, with participants exhibiting significantly faster responses when the visual target appeared in synchrony with the preceding auditory rhythm compared to out-of-synchrony trials. …”
