I need the measures of assessment the functions of prediction, particularly drawing tests which assess the ability of prediction and anticipation. It would be interesting to investigate these brain functions by tracking the electrical activity inside the brain with EEG.
Maybe check out some papers on smooth pursuit of eye movements with an occlusion. Tracking an object with your eyes requires focused attention to estimate (predict) the speed and eventual trajectory of the target. You might find some EEG papers on this type of motion prediction.
Agree with Jenn, eye-tracking provides more reliable evidence in studying predicting or anticipation. See here for eye-hand coordination data:
Atkins MS, Tien G, Zheng B, Khan RS, Meneghetti AT, (2013) What do surgeons see: eyegaze sensors for surgery applications, Surgical Innovation 2013 Jun;20(3):241-8.
For behavioral evidences on anticipatory movement between team members, see here
Zheng B, Taylor MD & Swanström LL (2008) An observation on surgery-related activities between surgeon and nurse during laparoscopic surgery. The America Journal of Surgery 197(4):497-502.
Zheng B, Swanström LL & MacKenzie CL (2007) A laboratory study on anticipatory movement in laparoscopic Surgery: a behavioral indicator for team collaboration. Surgical Endoscopy 21(6): 935-40
Is it the when or of what you want to go after for a meqsure of prediction/anticipation? there are several paradigms for invetigating predictiv coding. few examples for introduction might be of interest: occlusion paradigm (example. Muckli 2010), ommission paradigm (Kentaro Ono 2014) and perceptual closure paradigm.
