Duration Adaptation Occurs Across the Sub- and Supra-Second Systems
نویسندگان
چکیده
After repetitive exposure to a stimulus of relatively short duration, a subsequent stimulus of long duration is perceived as being even longer, and after repetitive exposure to a stimulus of relatively long duration, a subsequent stimulus of short duration is perceived as being even shorter. This phenomenon is called duration adaptation, and has been reported only for sub-second durations. We examined whether duration adaptation also occurs for supra-second durations (Experiment 1) and whether duration adaptation occurs across sub- and supra-second durations (Experiment 2). Duration adaptation occurred not only for sub-second durations, but also for supra-second durations and across sub- and supra-second durations. These results suggest that duration adaptation involves an interval-independent system or two functionally related systems that are associated with both the sub- and supra-second durations.

Duration Aftereffect Depends on the Duration of Adaptation
It has been widely demonstrated that a prolonged adaptation to a relatively long or short stimulus leads to a robust repulsive duration aftereffect. However, little is known about the rapid adaptation to stimulus duration. In this study, we investigated whether the duration aftereffect could also be induced by short-term adaptation to stimuli of both sub- and supra-second durations. To control ...
متن کاملContext-Dependent Neural Modulations in the Perception of Duration
Recent neuroimaging studies have revealed that two distinct brain networks are recruited in the perception of sub-second and supra-second durations. The aim of this study is to examine how intermediate duration between sub- and supra-second, that is, around one second duration, is processed in our brain. We hypothesized that durations around one second can be processed either by the sub-second ...
متن کاملThe image of time: A voxel-wise meta-analysis
Although there has been an explosion of interest in the neural correlates of time perception during the past decade, substantial disagreement persists regarding the structures that are relevant to interval timing. We addressed this important issue by conducting a comprehensive, voxel-wise meta-analysis using the activation likelihood estimation algorithm; this procedure models each stereotactic...
متن کاملTimescale- and Sensory Modality-Dependency of the Central Tendency of Time Perception
When individuals are asked to reproduce intervals of stimuli that are intermixedly presented at various times, longer intervals are often underestimated and shorter intervals overestimated. This phenomenon may be attributed to the central tendency of time perception, and suggests that our brain optimally encodes a stimulus interval based on current stimulus input and prior knowledge of the dist...
متن کاملDirect and Indirect Timing Functions in Unilateral Hemispheric Lesions
Introduction: The neural substrates of temporal processing are not still fully known. The majority of interval timing studies have dealt with this subject in the context of “Explicit timing” (computing the time intervals explicitly). The hypothesis “Implicit timing” (implicitly using temporal processing to improve function) has also proposed. This lesion study addressed explicit and implicit ti...
