✦ Synopsis

Interval timing in the seconds-to-minutes range is believed to underlie a variety of complex behaviors in humans and other animals. One of the more interesting problems in interval timing is trying to understand how the brain times events lasting for minutes with millisecond-based neural processes. Timing models proposing the use of coincidence-detection mechanisms (e.g., the detection of simultaneous activity across multiple neural inputs) appear to be the most compatible with known neural mechanisms. From an evolutionary perspective, coincidence detection of neuronal activity may be a fundamental mechanism of timing that is expressed across a wide variety of species. BioEssays 22:94 -103, 2000.

This experiment assessed the effects of nicotine on the ability of rats to time short intervals. Ten rats were trained to discriminate 20 and 60 s signals and were then tested using the peak-interval timing procedure for their ability to reproduce these intervals. Testing continued for 33 days on a

Interval-censored failure time data often occur, for example, in clinical trials or longitudinal studies. For the regression analysis of such data, there have been a number of methods proposed based on continuous regression models such as Cox's proportional hazards model. In practice, however, obser
