预测和注意力是大脑为感知和行动服务的基本功能。预测理论涉及神经（心理）模型推断（现在或未来）感官或动作相关信息，而注意力理论则是关于控制感知和动作背后的信息流。这两个概念是相关的，并不总是明确区分。该特刊包括当前在感知和行动的各个子领域中对预测和注意力的研究。它特别考虑了预测和注意过程之间的相互作用，这构成了一个新兴的和非常有趣的研究领域。正如这篇社论中所概述的，这期特刊中的贡献允许指定以及桥接预测和注意力的概念。对预测和注意的共同考虑也揭示了感知和行动的共同功能原则。
Prediction and attention are fundamental brain functions in the service of perception and action. Theories on prediction relate to neural (mental) models inferring about (present or future) sensory or action-related information, whereas theories of attention are about the control of information flow underlying perception and action. Both concepts are related and not always clearly distinguishable. The special issue includes current research on prediction and attention in various subfields of perception and action. It especially considers interactions between predictive and attentive processes, which constitute a newly emerging and highly interesting field of research. As outlined in this editorial, the contributions in this special issue allow specifying as well as bridging concepts on prediction and attention. The joint consideration of prediction and attention also reveals common functional principles of perception and action.
