“…Empirical studies provide evidence that the passing of time can be subjectively slower in depressed patients than in healthy controls (e.g., Mezey and Cohen, 1961; Bech, 1975; Wyrick and Wyrick, 1977; Richter and Benzenhöfer, 1985; Münzel et al, 1988). On the basis of these results on the subjective passage of time in depressive patients, more recent studies investigated potential effects of depression on time perception by means of different laboratory tasks that are state-of-the-art in research on time perception (see Grondin, 2010 for a recent review; see also Kuhs et al, 1989; Blewett, 1992; Sévigny et al, 2003; Bschor et al, 2004; Mahlberg et al, 2008; Msetfi et al, 2012). Basically, three tasks have been used; (a) verbal time estimation , where the subject is asked to give an estimate in time units like seconds or minutes of a presented time interval, which is marked for instance by two brief tones or comparable visual stimuli for example flashes (e.g., Dilling and Rabin, 1967; Bech, 1975; Kitamura and Kumar, 1983; Bschor et al, 2004), (b) time production, where a time interval is specified in temporal units and the subject is asked to produce this interval for example by pressing a button to mark the interval’s beginning and end (e.g., Tysk, 1984; Münzel et al, 1988) and (c) time reproduction, where a time interval is presented first as in (a) and in a second step the subject reproduces the interval as in (b) based on his (short term) memory representation of the interval (Mundt et al, 1998; Mahlberg et al, 2008).…”

“…The severity of the depression at the onset of the investigation was evaluated by a psy chiatrist, using the HRSD: In each case the time esti mation experiments were carried out in connection with self-assessment (VAMS) on 2 successive days at 7.30 a.m., 11.30 a.m., 3.30 p.m. and 7.30 p.m. The diurnal course of the recorded findings is dealt with extensively in a further study [15],…”

“…If. on the other hand, time estimation is used as an exclusively quantitative measure of a disturbed time experience, this assumption cannot be confirmed: Time assessment is not subject to an essential circadian rhythm either in healthy controls or in depressive patients [19].…”

“…Fahndrich and Haug [12] examined patients with various depressive disorders and healthy controls in the morning and evening respectively; the controls had an evening high (according to VAMS) more often than the patients (N. S.). According to a previous study of Kuhs et al [19], the diurnal mood pattern (on 2 successive days) did not differ between 12 healthy controls and 25 melancholic patients.…”
