Timing and time perception: A review of recent behavioral and neuroscience findings and theoretical directions
TLDR
The present review article discusses the question of whether there is an internal clock (pacemaker counter or oscillator device) that is dedicated to temporal processing and reports the main hypotheses regarding the involvement of biological structures in time perception.Abstract:
The aim of the present review article is to guide the reader through portions of the human time perception, or temporal processing, literature. After distinguishing the main contemporary issues related to time perception, the article focuses on the main findings and explanations that are available in the literature on explicit judgments about temporal intervals. The review emphasizes studies that are concerned with the processing of intervals lasting a few milliseconds to several seconds and covers studies issuing from either a behavioral or a neuroscience approach. It also discusses the question of whether there is an internal clock (pacemaker counter or oscillator device) that is dedicated to temporal processing and reports the main hypotheses regarding the involvement of biological structures in time perception.read more

Neural basis of the perception and estimation of time
TL;DR: It is proposed that the interconnections built into this core timing mechanism are designed to provide a form of degeneracy as protection against injury, disease, or age-related decline.

Pathophysiological distortions in time perception and timed performance

TL;DR: These findings are used to evaluate the Striatal Beat Frequency Theory, which is a neurobiological model of interval timing based upon the coincidence detection of oscillatory processes in corticostriatal circuits that can be mapped onto the stages of information processing proposed by Scalar Timing Theory.

Problematic smartphone use and relations with negative affect, fear of missing out, and fear of negative and positive evaluation.
TL;DR: Results demonstrated that FoMO was most strongly related to both problematic smartphone use and social smartphone use relative to negative affect and fears of negative and positive evaluation, and these relations held when controlling for age and gender.

Properties of the Internal Clock: First- and Second-Order Principles of Subjective Time
TL;DR: This review summarizes recent behavioral and neurobiological findings and provides a theoretical framework for considering how changes in the properties of the internal clock impact time perception and other psychological domains.

When time is space: evidence for a mental time line.
TL;DR: The empirical findings supporting the possibility that humans represent the subjective time flow on a spatially oriented "mental time line" that is accessed through spatial attention mechanisms are presented.

TL;DR: For instance, the authors discusses the multiplicity of the consciousness of self in the form of the stream of thought and the perception of space in the human brain, which is the basis for our work.

TL;DR: The Zimbardo Time Perspective Inventory (ZPI) as mentioned in this paper is a measure assessing personal variations in time perspective profiles and specific time perspective biases, and it has been shown to have convergent, divergent, discriminant and predictive validity.
