“…Another motion-related variable influencing perceived duration is the directionality of motion. Previous investigators have reported an anisotropic modulation of perceived duration by the direction of motion in depth, with stimuli moving towards an observer (i.e., objects that expand in size) leading to overestimated duration relative to receding stimuli (i.e., objects that contract in size) (e.g., Kline & Reed, 2013;New & Scholl, 2009;Seo et al, 2021;van Wassenhove et al, 2008;Wittmann et al, 2010; but see Grassi & Pavan, 2012;Kline & Reed, 2013;Sgouramani et al, 2020). For example, using an oddball task, Wittmann et al (2010) presented participants with a stream of five visual stimuli, all of which were stationary discs shown for identical durations except the fourth disc, an oddball stimulus, that was either expanding (i.e., looming) or contracting (i.e., receding).…”
