temporal perception

Causality shifts the perceived temporal order of audiovisual events.

Causality poses explicit constraints to the timing of sensory signals produced by events, as sound travels slower than light, making auditory stimulation to lag visual stimulation. Previous studies show that implied causality between unrelated events …

Perceptual Limits of Visual-Haptic Simultaneity in Virtual Reality Interactions

The goal of this work is to establish the range of visual-haptic asynchronies that go unnoticed when touching an object. To perform a psychophysical study, however, we would need asynchronous visual-haptic stimuli, but because the contact of the …

Timing and Time Perception: Procedures, Measures, & Applications

Timing and Time Perception: Procedures, Measures, and Applications is a one-of-a-kind, collective effort to present -theoretically and practically- the most utilized and known methods on timing and time perception.

Temporal Regularity of the Environment Drives Time Perception

It’s reasonable to assume that a regularly paced sequence should be perceived as regular, but here we show that perceived regularity depends on the context in which the sequence is embedded. We presented one group of participants with perceptually …

For the Last Time: Temporal Sensitivity and Perceived Timing of the Final Stimulus in an Isochronous Sequence

An isochronous sequence is a series of repeating events with the same inter-onset-interval. A common finding is that as the length of a sequence increases, so does temporal sensitivity to irregularities - that is, the detection of deviations from …

Perceived time and temporal structure: Neural entrainment to isochronous stimulation increases duration estimates

Distortions of perceived duration can give crucial insights into the mechanisms that underlie the processing and representation of stimulus timing. One factor that affects duration estimates is the temporal structure of stimuli that fill an interval. …

Filling the blanks in temporal intervals: The type of filling influences perceived duration and discrimination performance

In this work we investigate how judgments of perceived duration are influenced by the properties of the signals that define the intervals. Participants compared two auditory intervals that could be any combination of the following four types: …

Taking a long look at isochrony: Perceived duration increases with temporal, but not stimulus regularity

A commonly observed phenomenon to elucidate distortions of perceived duration is the filled-duration illusion: a temporal interval delimited by two marker signals is perceived to be shorter than the same interval with several identical filler …

Response time-dependent force perception during hand movement

For the perception of haptic environmental properties such as stiffness, damping, or inertia, estimates of force and movement must be combined continuously over time. We investigate the relations between sensitivity of perceptual judgments about …
