Stimulus identity differentially influences the perception of space and time

چکیده
Previous data indicate that individuals who continuously track a stimulus that suddenly vanishes indicate a vanishing point further ahead from where the stimulus actually vanished in the direction of momentum (Hubbard, 1995b). Implied forces (e.g., friction; Hubbard, 1995b) and typical motion (Reed & Vinson, 1996) have been shown to affect the perceptual planning associated with tracking a stimulus. Participants controlled an arbitrary stimulus (i.e., a bullet-train vs. a house) in two implied friction contexts (i.e., no surface and surface below), indicated the vanishing point of the stimulus, and made estimates of trials times after every trial. There was a main effect of friction on spatial displacement but not on time. Concepts, however, influence the perception of space and time differently. Participants controlling a bullet-train indicated less time per trial than participants controlling a house. This finding is further verified by no differences between concepts in actual trial times.

Prior experience with a stimulus profoundly affects how it is processed, perceived, and acted upon. One striking finding is that repeated items seem to last for less time than novel or rare ones. This link between the processing of stimulus identity and the perception of stimulus duration has important implications for theories of timing, and for broader accounts of the organization, purpose, a...
