Without question, the DSM-5 Proposed Draft Revision document has been generating considerable chatter among psychologists.

I have no idea what this feature will evolve into, but I’ve added a Facebook badge/button to all three of my professional blogs.

As a member of the Interactive Metronome Scientific Advisory Board I am often asked to review published research studies that have investigated the IM method. Recently, a investigation of the effectiveness IM (which is a mental timing -based intervnetion) with children with attention deficit disorder and developmental coordination disorders was published in the International Journal of Rehabilitation Research . The citation and abstract for the article are reproduced below.

FYI.

I ran across this very interest article in one of my favorite journals for short and concise up-to-date summaries of contemporary cognitive research.

I previously made a brief post about interesting research done in primates that suggested that the brain uses a “time stamp” method to keep track of the time of events.

Articles that caught my eye during my weekly search of a wide range of professional literature . Dellatolas, G., Watier, L., LeNormand, M.

Learned of another blog today related to mental-timing and the brain clock.  Brain Tune-Ups , a blog written by Teresa Garland , MOT.  As stated at her blog, she is ” a licensed occupational therapist specializing in sensory integration, self-regulation and brain enhancement. “  So this blog is from someone in the trenches using some mental-timing based therapies with clients.
