Journal ArticleDOI

Why "sounds are judged longer than lights": application of a model of the internal clock in humans.

TL;DR: Overall, the work showed how a clock model consistent with scalar timing theory, the leading account of animal timing, can address an issue derived from the classical literature on human time perception.
Journal ArticleDOI

Speeding up an internal clock in humans? Effects of click trains on subjective duration

TL;DR: Four experiments investigated the effect of trains of clicks on subjective duration in humans, as previous research had suggested that such a manipulation would speed up the pacemaker of an internal clock by increasing participants' arousal.
Journal ArticleDOI

Scalar properties in human timing: Conformity and violations

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors reviewed studies of human participants with respect to their conformity to scalar properties of timing: mean accuracy and the scalar property of variance, and found that systematic violations occurred when very short durations (< 100 ms) were timed, in situations in which timing tasks varying in difficulty were compared, and in situations where highly practised observers exhibited unusual patterns of variance.
Journal ArticleDOI

Stimulus Range Effects in Temporal Bisection by Humans

TL;DR: The results of two experiments with human subjects supported a previous conjecture that the L / S ratio used in a bisection task played a critical role in determining the behaviour obtained.
Journal ArticleDOI

Feeling the heat: body temperature and the rate of subjective time, revisited.

TL;DR: Experiments investigating timing behaviour in humans under conditions where body temperature was raised or (much more rarely) lowered, dating from 1927 to 1993, were reviewed, suggesting a parametric effect of body temperature, with higher temperatures generally producing faster subjective time.
