Time perception, especially duration estimation, plays a crucial role in the organization of behavior across development. Despite its importance, the cognitive mechanisms underlying impaired duration estimation remain insufficiently explored. Recentl...

Time perception is impaired in adult ADHD. Since the term time perception subsumes different constructs, including time estimation, time reproduction, time production, and duration discrimination, it remains open whether certain domains are more affe...

The passing of time can be precisely measured by using clocks, whereas humans’ estimation of temporal durations is influenced by many physical, cognitive and contextual factors, which distort our internal clock. Although it has been shown that...

Based on Kuzmičová’s [1] phenomenological typology of narrative styles, we studied the specific contributions of mental imagery to literary reading experience and to reading behavior by combining questionnaires with eye-tracking methodology. Specific...

The purpose of this study is to determine if there is any correlation between the characteristics of the user’s eye movements (EMs) and the preference of the user when wearing different Progressive power lenses (PPLs) distributions. An eye-tracker sy...

Our interaction with the world depends on our ability to process temporal information, which is a key component of human cognition that directly impacts decision-making, planning, and prediction of events. Visual information plays a crucial role in s...

There is increasing evidence that action and perception interact in the processing of magnitudes such as duration and numerosity. Sustained physical exercise (such as running or cycling) increases the apparent duration of visual stimuli presented dur...

Objectives: this study examined (i) the relationships between the care duration of carers and their perceptions of the importance of service improvement by types of service, and (ii) whether carers had a disability that moderated the impacts of care...

Many researchers have confirmed a correlation between the built environment and physical activity. However, most studies are based on the objective characteristics of the built environment, and seldom involve the residents’ subjective perceptio...

Nonverbal cues play a vital role in contributing to how emotions are perceived, especially by outgroups. In this study, a cross-cultural perception experiment of Spanish Synthetic Expressive Voices (SEV) was conducted to investigate the perception ra...

Background/Objectives: Time is a valuable and limited source that must be managed to participate in life domains efficiently. Time perception is an essential skill for managing the time, based on executive functions. This study examined the effects o...

The perception of time undergoes a radical shift between the human scale and the nanoscale. In an age of rapidly evolving media and scientific technologies, we need to understand how these impact human perception and visual culture. This essay explor...

Background: Opioid analgesics and psychotropic drugs (medical narcotics) are essential for treating pain and psychiatric disorders. Unlike tiered classification systems used globally, Korea uniformly classifies these medications with illicit drugs un...

Poor electrical hazard recognition is a widespread issue in the production industry. Hazard perception has impacts workers’ hazard recognition, causing them to experience unanticipated hazard exposure and suffer catastrophic injuries. To improv...

Background/Objectives: Speech perception is shaped by language experience, with listeners learning to selectively attend to acoustic cues that are informative in their language. This study investigates how language dominance, a proxy for long-term la...

The driver’s perception level and takeover performance are two major factors that result in accidents in autonomous vehicles. This study’s goal is to analyze the change in drivers’ perception level and its influence on takeover perf...

Background: Gustatory dysfunction represents an underrecognized complication that may influence dietary behaviors and metabolic control. Previous investigations have suggested alterations in taste in patients with diabetes, yet the relationship betwe...
