Depression does not affect time perception and time-to-contact estimation

Abstract: Depressed patients frequently report a subjective slowing of the passage of time. However, experimental demonstrations of altered time perception in depressed patients are not conclusive. We added a timed action task (time-to-contact estimation, TTC) and compared this indirect time perception task to the more direct classical methods of verbal time estimation, time production, and time reproduction. In the TTC estimation task, the deviations of the estimates from the veridical values (relative errors) revealed… Show more

“…Empirical research provided inconsistent or contradictory findings, displaying both overestimation [93,94] and underestimation [95] of time intervals as well as normal performance [86] in patients with depression. Also, employing time production/reproduction tasks, contradictory findings have been provided [88,[91][92][93][94][95] .…”

“…Time perception is linked to a neural cognitive device, regarded as the "inner clock" [84] , whose activity is sensitive to physiological variables (i.e., age or dopaminergic tone) or pathological ones (e.g., schizophrenia) [85] . On the contrary, time experience is considered the "direct phenomenal impression of time perception," that is the subjective experience of time flowing [86] . Time experience has been investigated via the Visual Analogue Scale (a graduated line spanning from extremely slow to extremely quick polarities) [87,88] and via the verbal statements produced by the patients [89] .…”

“…An explicit judgment about duration is the outcome of experimental tasks requiring comparison of time intervals, production or reproduction of a standard duration or verbal estimation (Msetfi et al, 2012;Droit-Volet, 2013;Davalos et al 2018). This approach has led to conflicting results and the precise influence of depression on time perception remains elusive (see review in Oberfeld et al, 2014;Thönes and Oberfeld, 2015). However, temporal cognition is not limited to explicit temporal judgements.…”
