Asynchrony (difference in timing) of the metronome tone & the subject"s tap. Can adjust if it taps early or late. Ex: if you tap early, it will tap early next time to match you. Standard deviation (sd) of asynchrony varies with virtual partner (vp) adaptivity. Variation in brain activity as a function of vp adaptivity. At the simplest level, those movements are periodic. Ex: bobbing your head or tapping along with the beat. Meter, beat, measure, subdivision, tempo, notes, swing, syncopation, rhythm, downbeat, upbeat, pulse, break. Usually specified in beats per minute (bpm) A regular (isochronous) sequence of moments in time at which a person would be likely to tap along with music.
