... beat perception motion capture music dance movement Music is temporal, unfolding over time and structured by its temporal features. Processing of certain structural regularities of temporal patterns in music occurs spontaneously, such as perceiving a “beat”—a regularly recurring salient...

... in the morning. Upon arrival, the participants were dressed in a black suit and hat with reflective markers required to facilitate motion capturing (see Figure 1 ). Instructions were given to enable the participants to continue the rest of the procedure independently, without further experimenter intervention...

... consisting of 24 point-light animations were created using motion capture data selected from a sample of 99 dyads, based on self-reported trait empathy. Individuals whose Empathy Quotient (EQ) scores were in the top or bottom quartile of all scores were considered to have high or low empathy, respectively...

... ) at two tempi (500 ms and 400 ms interonset interval). The Flash sequence contained only temporal information, whereas the two Finger sequences contained apparent motion of different amplitudes. Participants' finger movements were recorded with a motion capture system, and movement trajectories and timing...

... recorded with motion capture. Finger accelerations indicated consistent kinematic landmarks when fingers made initial contact with or release from the key surface. Performances that contained more kinematic landmarks had reduced timing error. The magnitude of finger accelerations on key contact and release...
