Spatial effects on temporal categorisation.

Abstract:

:We examined the influence of spatial factors in temporal processing. Participants categorised as short or long empty intervals marked by two brief flashes delivered from locations differing in height and depth (experiment 1), or from two of three locations on a vertical plane (experiment 2). The perceived duration of intervals, as determined by the point of subjective equality, was affected by the height and depth of the signals (experiment 1). Experiment 2 showed that the point of fixation plays a critical role in perceived duration. The duration of an interval located in the upper visual field is perceived as longer when participants fixate the higher visual source and shorter when the fixation point is set in the middle; this latter result also generally applies when the fixation point is in the lower source. Finally, for the sensitivity level, there was a significant segment (upper versus lower) x direction (descending versus ascending) interaction in experiment 1; a similar interaction effect varied according to the fixation point in experiment 2. In experiment 2, the Weber fractions were around 0.22. Most results can be explained in terms of the need to shift attention from one visual source--for marking time intervals--to another.
