Abstract: Several studies show that visual stimuli traveling at higher velocities are overestimated with respect to slower, or stationary, stimuli of equivalent physical duration. This effect-time dilation-relates more in general to several accounts highlighting a quantitative relationship between the amount of changes a stimulus is subject to and the perceived duration: faster stimuli, subject to a greater number of changes in space, lead to overestimated durations of displacement. In the present paper we provide evide… Show more

“…For example, Matthews [53] found that stimuli at constant speed are judged as longer compared to decelerating and accelerating stimuli, which cannot be explained by classical accumulation models. Similar results are reported by Binetti et al [54], who compared temporal judgments for decelerating and accelerating flickering stimuli and found symmetrical over and underestimation compared to a constantly flickering comparison stimulus, which contradicts the rate-of-change-account, since all stimuli contained equal number of changes. Bruno et al [55] found that drifting stimuli are judged as longer than static stimuli, which confirms the rate-of-change-account.…”

“…One remaining question is whether this change-induced time distortion effect is specific to visual motion. A recent study showed that the perceived duration of visual flicker was longer when its temporal frequency changed from higher to lower than when its temporal frequency changed from lower to higher (Binetti et al 2012). This suggests that change in temporal frequency of flicker as well as change in speed modulates time perception.…”

“…Distortions of perceived durations have been reported using stimuli of many different modalities, including auditory flutters [ 11 14 , 18 21 ], visual flickers [ 5 , 7 , 15 , 22 26 ], and tactile vibrations [ 27 , 28 ]. In these studies, rapid intermittent stimuli (e.g., flickers or flutters) were presented during time estimation tasks, and their perceived durations were measured in various ways.…”
