Our perception of the passing of time may depend on signals that our brain receives from our bodies, specifically our heartbeats.
Momentary perceptions of time may stretch or shrink with each heartbeat and are not continuous, as previously thought.
A switch of perceived ratio duration changes at age 7. Researchers say the concept of heuristics can help to explain differences in time perception in relation to a person's age.
Destruction or removal of the cilia in the striatum impairs time perception and judgment, new research suggests. The findings could have implications for a range of diseases including schizophrenia, ASD, and Parkinson's.
For children, the run-up to Christmas seems to take forever, but for adults, time appears to fly as the Holiday season approaches. Researchers say this is because our perception of time alters as we age.
Many people report their perception of time felt distorted during the early stages of the COVID-19 pandemic, including problems in tracking the day of the week or feeling as though time was passing slower. Researchers say this temporal disintegration was, in part, associated with pandemic related stressors.
A new study reveals how the COVID-19 pandemic changed the perception of time for many people. Researchers say people felt time passed more slowly during COVID lockdowns. This "time expansion" was associated with increased feelings of loneliness and a lack of positive experience during the early parts of the COVID pandemic.
The repetitive nature of days we faced during the COVID-19 lockdowns may have made our memories and time perception murky. Researchers report on how COVID-19 has impacted our memory, causing a pandemic memory fog.
During an upcoming symposium, researchers will discuss the neurobiology of time perception, how emotion shapes our perception of time, and the role of memory in anticipation.
A new study reveals the unique "time compression" effect of virtual reality technology.
Many people reported they felt like time was passing differently during the initial COVID-19 lockdowns. Researchers explore how the pandemic has contributed to the feeling of time distortion.
Time-sensitive neuron fatigue in the supramarginal gyrus skew how we perceive time.
