Definición

  • "Event Segmentation Theory (EST) proposes that perceptual systems spontaneously segment activity into events as a side effect of trying to anticipate upcoming information. When perceptual or conceptual features of the activity change, prediction becomes more difficult and errors in prediction increase transiently. At such points, people update memory representations of ‘what is happening now’. The processing cascade of detecting a transient increase in error and updating memory is perceived as the subjective experience that a new event has begun." (Kurby et Zacks, 2008, p. 72).
