Study Notes
Erasmu Psychology of Time: Current Trends
- Various scientific approaches investigate time, often associating it with physics (objective measurement) but also as a fundamental aspect of human life and activity.
- Psychological time involves perception, comprehension, and construction of event succession and duration. Key aspects are succession, duration, and perspective.
- Cognitive development of time is explored via research, particularly Piaget (1946), focusing on kinematic time (in relation to distance and velocity) and non-kinematic time (related to problem-solving).
- Non-kinematic Time is further divided into duration and succession concepts, relating to initial and final states. Time is also studied in relation to a temporal reasoning framework
- Temporal reasoning is an expression of time through relations, e.g. IF A starts before B and A stops after B, THEN A last for a longer duration.
- Time perception is linked to duration thresholds. Humans can perceive events longer than a few milliseconds and require an adequate duration interval for distinguishing multiple events. Sensory systems play a role in the perception of time. (e.g., visual stimuli needing more than 110-130ms and auditory 10-50ms to be perceived).
- Estimations of time duration are often biased. People tend to overestimate short durations and underestimate significant long durations. Known as Vierordt's law.
- Psychological time is a product of brain mechanisms, in which internal clocks enable the measurement and judgment of time duration. This complements the cognitive models proposing psychological time from information processing that utilizes memory and attention.
- The experience of time varies with emotional states (e.g., pleasant events as faster, unpleasant as slower).
- Moods and emotions significantly impact time estimation, with pleasant experiences often leading to underestimated duration and unpleasant ones to overestimation.
- Temporal aspects of cognition and age play a vital role in understanding time perception, including tasks concerning age estimation and duration perception.
- The role of conflict is studied in relation to knowledge production. Experimentation, using events deemed (by students) to be unfamiliar with physics, is employed.
- The use of conflict helps students to produce generalised knowledge or understanding about time.
