Unstuck in Time
Depression has long been associated with disturbances in the experience of time. Cognitive models of temporal perception account for this phenomenon by suggesting depression-induced anxiety increases arousal, which speeds up a central pacemaker and causes temporal dilation. Experimental studies, however, have thus far found no correlation between symptoms of depression and estimates of temporal distortion. Arguing against the usefulness of absolu…
Time to think of love, leisure, terror, and despair
Visible skin disease symptoms of another person reduce automatic imitation of their hand movements
Revisiting embodiment for brain–computer interfaces
Researchers increasingly explore deploying brain–computer interfaces (BCIs) for able-bodied users, with the motivation of accessing mental states more directly than allowed by existing body-mediated interaction. This motivation seems to contradict the long-standing HCI emphasis on embodiment, namely the general claim that the body is crucial for cognition. This paper addresses this apparent contradiction through a review of insights from embodied…
Time to imagine moving
Sensing the passage of time is important for countless daily tasks, yet time perception is easily influenced by perception, cognition, and emotion. Mechanistic accounts of time perception have traditionally regarded time perception as part of central cognition. Since proprioception, action execution, and sensorimotor contingencies also affect time perception, perception-action integration theories suggest motor processes are central to the experi…
Space, time and number
Space, time and number are key dimensions that underlie how we perceive, identify and act within the environment. They are interconnected in our behaviour and brain. In this study, we examined interdependencies between these dimensions. To this end, left- and right-handed participants performed an object collision task that required space–time processing and arithmetic tests that involved number processing. Handedness of the participants influenc…
Anticipation of aversive visual stimuli lengthens perceived temporal duration
Subjective estimates of elapsed time are sensitive to the fluctuations in an emotional state. While it is well known that dangerous and threatening situations, such as electric shocks or loud noises, are perceived as lasting longer than safe events, it remains unclear whether anticipating a threatening event speeds up or slows down subjective time and what defines the direction of the distortion. We examined whether the anticipation of uncertain …
Developmental changes in motor control
Manual dexterity is known to gradually progress with developmental age. In this study, we evaluate the performance of unimanual and bimanual actions under perturbed and unperturbed conditions in children between 4 and 10 years of age. Behavior was assessed by means of trajectory measurements and degree of bimanual coupling. The results showed that the younger children performed less successfully than the older children in the unimanual and bimanu…
