Inferior parietal and lateral occipitotemporal cortex encode the effects of actions at an abstract level of representation, independently of the body movements that induce them.

Cortical tracking of multi-scale temporal structures supports audiovisual integration of human motion via distinct modes, with superadditive integration at higher-order timescale linked to biological motion processing and autistic traits.

Psychophysical experiments and computational modeling demonstrate the importance of transient, instead of sustained, channels for the integration of audiovisual signals.
