The Vestibular System's Influence on the Perceived Duration of Lights, Sounds, and Touches
… In Experiment 1, participants judged light duration; in Experiment 2, sound; in Experiment 3, tactile vibration; and in Experiment 4, visual duration with and without disruptive galvanic vestibular stimulation (dGVS). Results revealed that light and tactile stimuli were perceived as longer …

An Investigation into the Perceived Urgency of Auditory Warnings
This thesis considers the perceived urgency of sound, with specific reference to auditory warning design. Psychophysical techniques were investigated as a means of measuring perceived urgency. The biases inherent in different techniques were reviewed. Free modulus magnitude estimation, fixed …

The effect of pain on human time perception
… testing the way in which pain experience affects duration estimates, and memory for duration and secondly by examining whether it was possible to reduce perceived duration of pain in clinical and no clinical population. Chapter 5 examined the effect of different pain intensities on perceived …

Numerical magnitude affects the perception of time and intensity
… have found that large magnitude numbers are perceived to have longer durations than those of smaller numbers. This bias can be accounted for in several ways; first, the internal clock model theorizes that stimulus magnitude directly interacts with the components of a dedicated cognitive timer …

Explorations of Perceived Product Efficacy
<p>Prior research has largely treated perceived product efficacy as a one-dimensional construct. This research uniquely demonstrates that perceived product efficacy is comprised of several dimensions and focuses on one previously unexplored dimension that has significant implications for …

THE EFFECTS OF MUSIC AMPLITUDE AND CONSUMERS' SEX ON
… perception of wait time is defined as the perceived duration of a time interval. A convenience sample of forty-one undergraduate and graduate college students (N=41) participated in the study. The participants were divided into three groups: no amplitude, low amplitude, and high amplitude. …

The Role of Spatial Structure in Human Duration Processing
… responsible for the processing of sub-second durations. Duration discrimination sensitivity was found to be lower when event durations were defined by stimulus characteristics that caused reductions in spatial form sensitivity. This form-duration sensitivity coupling persisted across stimuli …
