Circadian rhythm profiles derived from accelerometer measures of the sleep-wake cycle in two cohort studies [PDF]
Nature CommunicationsAccelerometers allow objective measures of dimensions (rest-activity rhythm (RAR), daytime activity, sleep, and chronotype) of the bio-behavioural manifestation of circadian rhythm (CR) using multiple metrics in large-scale studies.

Tapping Force Encodes Metrical Aspects of Rhythm [PDF]
Frontiers in Human Neuroscience, 2021 Humans possess the ability to extract highly organized perceptual structures from sequences of temporal stimuli. For instance, we can organize specific rhythmical patterns into hierarchical, or metrical, systems. Despite the evidence of a fundamental influence of the motor system in achieving this skill, few studies have attempted to investigate the ...

Lateralisation of non-metric rhythm [PDF]
Laterality: Asymmetries of Body, Brain and Cognition, 2011 There are contradictory results on lateralisation and localisation of rhythm processing. Our aim was to test whether there is a hemispheric dissociation of metric and non-metric rhythm processing. We created a non-metric rhythm stimulus without a sense of metre and we measured brain activities during passive rhythm perception.
