Propositions
Magnitudes or quantities of different dimensions that define an event (e.g., numerosity) influence the perceived duration of this event in a “more (other dimension) is more (time)” way.
How strongly other dimensions affect duration judgements varies greatly bet-ween participants, but is a stable psychological bias within participants.
The CNV, once thought to reflect the accumulator of an internal clock system, really reflects something else.
We can flexibly translate temporal information into different formats like spati-al, symbolic, or motor representations.
Our environment and all of our cognition is inherently temporal – we can use this temporality in many ways to make duration judgements.
However participants make duration judgements, the observed behavioral per-formance adheres to psychophysical laws of time perception.
We may miss out on figuring out how minds tell or keep track of time because our preconceived idea of (internal) clocks affects the way we design experiments and interpret results.
