The magnitude of many biological traits relates strongly and regularly to body size.
Consequently, a major goal of comparative biology is to understand and apply these 'size …

Time is a fundamental dimension of all biological events and it is often assumed that
animals have the capacity to track the duration of experienced events (known as interval …

Abstract In 1868, Karl Vierordt discovered one type of errors in time perception—an
overestimation of short duration and underestimation of long durations, known as Vierordt's …

Although humans are well capable of precise time measurement, their duration judgments
are nevertheless susceptible to temporal context. Previous research on temporal bisection …

The temporal bisection procedure has been used to assess theories of time perception. A
problem with the procedure for measuring the perceived midpoint of two durations is that the …

Viewing a rapid sequence of face images shown in the periphery can lead to large
caricature-like distortions in the perceived images, a phenomenon known as the Flashed …

In a world that is uncertain and noisy, perception makes use of optimization procedures that
rely on the statistical properties of previous experiences. A well-known example of this …

Duration perception can be heavily distorted owing to repetitive exposure to a relatively long
or short sensory event, often causing a duration aftereffect. Here, we used a novel procedure …

Rapid eye movements can distort our perception of time, as evidenced by the phenomenon
of Chronostasis, where the first event following a saccade appears to last longer than it …

Abstract The Trace Theory of Perception (TToP) is applied to temporal interval bisection. In
this protocol, after familiarization with the referents for long or short judgments—the …
