Timing and Time Perception: Procedures, Measures, and Applications
Full text linkTiming and Time Perception: Procedures, Measures, and Applications is a one-of-a-kind, collective effort to present the most utilized and known methods on timing and time perception. Specifically, it covers methods and analysis on circadian timing, synchrony perception, reaction/response time, time estimation, and alternative methods for clinical/developmental research. The book includes experimental protocols, programming code, and sample results and the content ranges from very introductory to more advanced so as to cover the needs of both junior and senior researchers. We hope that this will be the first step in future efforts to document experimental methods and analysis both in a theoretical and in a practical manner

Time and Distance Perception in Highly Dynamic Environments
No full textSpace- and time-based tasks, like flying airplanes, driving cars, or the manual controlled rendezvous and docking of spacecrafts can be very demanding for pilots, drivers, or astronauts, depending on selected trajectories, approaching speeds, or distracting information. One characteristic of highly dynamic environments is that persons have to consider their spatial position in relation to surrounding elements based on passing time, detected speed, and trajectories to avoid collisions with other objects. An inadequate perception of the own position in relation to other objects and passing time can lead to impaired decision-making processes, resulting in errors or collisions. A framework for the explanation of cognitive processes involved in perception, anticipation, and decision-making in dynamic environments is provided by the concept of situation awareness. Based on this framework persons must perceive relevant elements, integrate them in a coherent mental representation and anticipate the development of the current situation in the near future, to plan safe upcoming maneuvers. Thus, for safe maneuvers anticipation processes are playing a major role in decision-making and action selection. In this paper it is proposed that time and distance perceptions are central features of anticipation processes in dynamic situations. It is suggested to combine theories like the attentional-gate model and time-to-contact with the framework of situation awareness to explain anticipation processes in dynamic environments. The major aim is to develop precise cognitive models of persons acting in dynamic situations. Such cognitive models can be the basis for the development and parameterization of assistance systems, supporting anticipation in dynamic environments

The effects of increased mental workload of air traffic controllers on time perception: Behavioral and physiological evidence
No full text<p>Research has shown that timing is modulated by mental workload, making duration judgments a measure of cognitive demand, alongside subjective assessments, and physiological measurements. Yet, it is unclear whether such findings can be extended in less controlled setups. By employing air traffic controllers in a real aviation environment, we tested whether tasks with different levels of cognitive load can affect their timing behavior. Participants completed temporal production, verbal estimation, and passage of time judgments, while actively engaging in real flight control sessions. Subjective assessments of task demands, as well as physiological responses (cardiac and electrodermal activity) were also measured. Accuracy of the produced intervals was measured at two distinct phases of the flight (during low-load cruising vs. high-load landing) and under two different task load manipulations (controlling one vs. two helicopters and speaking in native vs. non-native language). Analysis of interval production accuracy showed that during the high-load landing phase significant overproductions were made, compared to the low-load cruising phase, and landing two helicopters led to greater overproductions compared to landing only one. The duration of the two-helicopter sessions was significantly overestimated compared to the single-helicopter ones, and the passage of time was felt significantly faster. Subjective assessments of workload were positively correlated with the temporal estimations and passage of time judgments, and skin responses were positively correlated with the produced intervals. Overall, our results are consistent with past research, suggesting that mental workload modulates time perception in complex, real-world environments, thus making timing behavior a reliable index of the workload changes.</p><p> </p><p>Analysis code and research materials are available at <a href="https://osf.io/4vtgc/">https://osf.io/4vtgc/</a>.
