“…The purpose of the present study was to test predictions from Hicks's (Hicks et al, 1976;Hicks et al, 1977;Miller et al, 1978) and Ornstein's (1969) theories of interval estimation in both the prospective and retrospective paradigms. The adequacy of each model in accounting for the observed data will be considered.…”

“…Although Thomas and Brown (1974) provided a detailed theoretical account of the fIlled-duration illusion, Hicks (Hicks et al, 1976;Hicks, Miller, Gaes, & Bierman, 1977;Miller, Hicks, & Willette, 1978) proposed a model of prospective interval estimation which accounted for both sets of data. Subjective duration is assumed to increase with the subject's attention to time.…”

Undergraduate students performed one of three levels of processing on each word (15, 30, or 45) presented during a 120-sec interval. Subjects were told in advance that they would be required to estimate the length of the presentation interval (prospective condition) or were presented with an unexpected estimation task (retrospective condition). In the prospective condition, interval estimates were an inverse function of list length when relatively deep levels of processing were required, but were an increasing function of list length when shallow processing was required. In the retrospective condition, estimates were an increasing function of list length and were unaffected by different levels of processing. The interval estimation model proposed by Hicks, Miller, and Kinsboume (1976) provided a better account of the data than did the storage-size hypothesis of Omstein (1969).Interval estimation requires subjects to indicate the length of a given interval in the absence of an external timing device. Different paradigms have produced different results and have spawned opposing theories of interval estimation. When subjects have not known in advance that estimates would be required, that is, the retrospective paradigm was used, estimates increased as the amount of information presented during the interval increased (

“…In addition, processing demands influence the effect of attention on duration estimation (e.g., Brown, 1985;Chen & O'Neill, 2001;Thomas & Weaver, 1975). For example, it has been reported that when participants perform a Selective Attention 50 concurrent nontemporal task in addition to duration estimation, their perceived duration is longer when the nontemporal task is easy than when it is hard (e.g., Hicks, Miller, Gaes, & Bierman, 1977;Zakay, 1993).…”

Selective Attention and the Perception of an Attended Nontarget Object.

Although many theories of attention assume that attending to an object results in the processing of all its feature dimensions, there has been no direct evidence that the irrelevant dimensions of an attended nontarget object are encoded. This article explores factors that modulate such processing. In 6 experiments, participants made a speeded response to a probe preceded by a prime that varied in 2 dimensions. Their reaction times to the probe were influenced by the response compatibility between the relevant and irrelevant dimensions of the prime. Furthermore, the effect was observed only when attention was directed to a nonlocation object feature and when participants' reaction times were relatively long. These results suggest that the effect of attention on a nontarget object is more complex than was previously understood.

“…São controversas as discussões acerca de teorias sobre a noção de tempo. Observam-se duas diferentes opiniões sobre o tema: a teoria da contagem atencional, de grande utilização por pesquisadores americanos, e a teoria do relógio interno, muito abordada por estudiosos franceses (Hick et al, 1997).…”

Palavras-chavesNeuropsicologia, funções executivas, estimativa de tempo, avaliação cognitiva. resumo objetivo: Procuramos analisar os aspectos cognitivos e metodológicos envolvidos na avaliação da noção de intervalos de tempo, verificando os aspectos cognitivos envolvidos durante a sua execução, e apontar a relevância, aplicabilidade e sensibilidade dessa avaliação no exame neuropsicológico. métodos: Realizou-se revisão bibliográfica abrangendo artigos e pesquisas das literaturas nacional e internacional no período de 1990 a 2005. resultados: Encontraram-se 13 diferentes estudos. São controversas as discussões acerca de teorias sobre a noção de tempo. Os estudos podem ser agrupados de acordo com duas perspectivas diferentes: a teoria da contagem atencional, de grande utilização por pesquisadores americanos, e a teoria do relógio interno, muito abordada por estudiosos franceses que se diferem tanto em relação à abordagem teórica quanto à metodológica. Conclusões: Ambos os grupos de pesquisa, americanos e franceses, retratam a relevância da aplicação dos testes de estimativa, reprodução e produção de tempo no estudo das funções executivas. AbstrACt Objective: We tried to analyze the cognitive and methodological aspects involved in the evaluation of time intervals notion, verifying the cognitive aspects involved during your execution
