Event Segmentation
Participants watch a continuous activity (typically a film of everyday actions) and press a key to mark perceived boundaries between meaningful events, often at coarse and fine grains. Agreement across observers, neural responses at boundaries, and the relationship between segmentation and subsequent memory index how ongoing experience is parsed into event units.
