EEG Monitoring of Temporal Anticipation in Coincidence Anticipation Timing Tasks: A Scoping Review With Recommendations.
Article in Brain and behavior, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
backgroundCoincidence anticipation timing (CAT) tasks require individuals to synchronize their movement with an external moving stimulus. Electroencephalography (EEG), due to its high temporal resolution, offers a valuable tool for investigating the neural processes underlying temporal anticipation in these tasks.
objectivesThis scoping review aims to map the existing literature on EEG monitoring of temporal anticipation during CAT tasks, identify methodological patterns, evaluate the consistency of reported EEG markers, and highlight potential gaps. ELIGIBILITY CRITERIA: Studies were included if they examined EEG activity related to anticipatory processes during CAT tasks in human participants. SOURCES OF EVIDENCE: Studies were obtained from PubMed, Web of Science, and Scopus. A systematic search was conducted in May 2024 and updated in October 2025. CHARTING
methodsData were charted across studies, focusing on participant characteristics, protocols, EEG methodologies, and reported outcomes.
resultsEleven studies met our criterion. Substantial methodological variability was identified in participant setup, task design, EEG acquisition, and data analysis strategies. Although some EEG markers have been recurrently explored, no neural features were consistently assessed across all studies, limiting the identification of robust markers of temporal anticipation. Reporting gaps were observed regarding participant characteristics, anticipation type, and error metrics.
conclusionsThe field remains exploratory, with considerable heterogeneity across studies. To support more reliable comparisons and advance progress, this review proposes practical methodological recommendations focused on standardizing CAT task design and EEG procedures. These guidelines aim to enhance research quality and contribute to a more cohesive understanding of the neural correlates of temporal anticipation.
