Modeling temporal perception
… world abounding with events that exhibit dynamic temporal structure; birds flying, children laughing, rain dripping from an eave, melodies unfolding, etc. Seeing objects in motion, hearing and communicating with sound, and feeling oneself move are such common everyday experiences that one is …

Natural Rhythms and Temporal Perception - Visualization of Sunlight Patterns with Energy Monitoring
In his book Ritual House, Ralph Knowles states, "The houses we inhabit, the cities surrounding our houses, even the clothes we wear - all are shelters we erect against the elements. But they are also manifestations of ancient rituals, developed in response to nature's rhythms" (2006). Implicit …

The impact of cultural differences in temporal perception on global software development teams
… the impact of cultural differences in temporal perception on globally dispersed software development teams. Literature and anecdotal evidence suggest that these temporal differences affect individual communication quality, which in turn will affect individual satisfaction and trust …

Perceiving Temporal Structure
… and positions but also with events and their temporal structure: that is, their temporal relationships such as simultaneity and temporal order. This dissertation aims to defend the claim that we perceptually experience temporal structure from recently revived challenges, and to show how a …

DUET: Distinct but United Event-based Timelines
… linear timelines create a natural sense of temporal perception since users can easily tell what time of day certain events occur. Our project seeks to find a balance between the natural temporal perception that linear timelines offer and improving the usability of visualizing event-based …

The perceived timing of events across different sensory modalities. A psychophysical investigation of multisensory time perception in humans.
… anatomical and psychophysical features of temporal processing, respectively, whilst Chapter 3 introduces the reader to psychophysical methods. Chapter 4 examines the relationship between two measures of sensory latency, reaction time (RT) and crossmodal temporal order judgment (TOJ). …

Space is the now; now is the time!
… extent and embrace ourselves from the indefinite temporal progress of existence. Through architecture, not only do we mark our spatial boundaries, but we also indicate our temporal becoming and existence. However, historically, the temporality of space has only been studied through the lens of …

Perceptual models for high-refresh-rate rendering
… displays; specifically, I focus on spatio-temporal perception, a topic that has received remarkably less attention than spatial-only perception so far. I present three main contributions. First, I demonstrate the validity of the perceptual approach by presenting a conceptually simple …

An Endogenous Metric for the Perception of Short Temporal Intervals
… temperature elevation and depression upon the perception of brief temporal intervals. In the first experiment each of twelve male subjects undertook one of the possible twenty-four orders of presentation of four thermal conditions. In each condition the auditorily and visually isolated subject …

Tools for mindful timekeeping : 4 devices to change our relationship to time
… is to help people become more aware of the temporality that is at the core of our being. Time pressure comes from the networks of timekeeping that surround us. It's not just our clocks and watches. Time is synchronized across devices, cities, and continents. Networked time regulates our …

Neurocognitive entrainment to meter influences syntactic comprehension in music and language
… differences have been documented in both meter perception and syntactic comprehension paradigms. Previous evidence insinuated but never fully explored the relationship that metrical structure has to syntactic comprehension, the comparability of these processes across music and language domains, …

The effect of pain on human time perception
This thesis explored the effect of pain on human temporal perception. This aim was achieved firstly by systematically 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 …

The Effects of Pre-Trial Event Stimulus Properties on Timing in the Peak Interval Procedure
… the effects of during-trial stimulus properties—temporal location, duration, and salience—have been previously reported, no research exists on how before-trial stimulus properties influence the extent of shifts in middle time. In the present study, we manipulated within subjects both the temporal …
