The perception and passage of time during public speaking
Several studies have shown that anxious individuals experience a slower passage of time under threat conditioning. Anxiety-evoking situations have also been proposed to elevate arousal levels, which, in turn, alter one's time percept. However, the effect of social stressors on time perception remains significantly neglected. The current research aimed to investigate the impact of anxiety levels on time estimation and passage of time judgments dur…
Time perception in film viewing
Filmmakers and editors have empirically developed techniques to ensure the spatiotemporal continuity of a film's narration. In terms of time, editing techniques (e.g., elliptical, overlapping, or cut minimization) allow for the manipulation of the perceived duration of events as they unfold on screen. More specifically, a scene can be edited to be time compressed, expanded, or real-time in terms of its perceived duration. Despite the consistent a…
Musical consonance in simple, static auditory stimuli and perceived pleasantness
Many investigations on the emotional responses to music focus on the use of music pieces that contain a plethora of characteristics. This multitude of characteristics hampers the detection of the specific acoustic properties that contribute to the evoked emotions. In the present study, we were interested in the potential contribution of specific acoustical parameters of consonance to induced emotions. We, therefore, manipulated consonance by crea…
The Blursday database as a resource to study subjective temporalities during Covid-19
The COVID-19 pandemic and associated lockdowns triggered worldwide changes in the daily routines of human experience. The Blursday database provides repeated measures of subjective time and related processes from participants in nine countries tested on 14 questionnaires and 15 behavioural tasks during the COVID-19 pandemic. A total of 2,840 participants completed at least one task, and 439 participants completed all tasks in the first session. T…
Do the colors of your letters depend on your language? Language-dependent and universal influences on grapheme-color synesthesia in seven languages
Grapheme-color synesthetes experience graphemes as having a consistent color (e.g., "N is turquoise"). Synesthetes' specific associations (which letter is which color) are often influenced by linguistic properties such as phonetic similarity, color terms ("Y is yellow"), and semantic associations ("D is for dog and dogs are brown"). However, most studies of synesthesia use only English-speaking synesthetes. Here, we measure the effect of color te…
Tears evoke the intention to offer social support
Tearful crying is a ubiquitous and likely uniquely human phenomenon. Scholars have argued that emotional tears serve an attachment function: Tears are thought to act as a social glue by evoking social support intentions. Initial experimental studies supported this proposition across several methodologies, but these were conducted almost exclusively on participants from North America and Europe, resulting in limited generalizability. This project …
