Abstract:Remembering past events usually takes less time than their actual duration—their unfolding is temporally compressed in episodic memory. The rate of temporal compression (i.e., the ratio of the actual duration of an event to the duration of its remembering) is not constant but varies between individuals and as a function of the structure of events (e.g., the frequency of event boundaries). However, the cognitive mechanisms underlying these variations remain poorly understood. Given its role in the encoding and … Show more
