Recent developments in the field of timing and time perception have
not simply multiplied the number of relevant questions regarding
psychological time, but they have also helped to provide more
answers and open many fascinating avenues of thought. "Psychology
of Time" brings together cutting-edge presentations of many of the
main ideas, findings, hypotheses and theories that experimental
psychology provides to the field of timing and psychological time.
The contributors, selected for their ability to address various
specific questions, were asked to discuss what is known in their
field and what avenues remain to be explored. As a result, this
book should point readers in the right direction and guide them to
reflect on the various and most fundamental issues on psychological
time. It offers a balanced integration of old and sometimes
neglected findings and more recent empirical advances, all
presented within the scope of the critical sub-fields of
psychological time in experimental psychology.
Using a concise question and answer format, The Perception of Time:
Your Questions Answered examines basic temporal processes and the
ways in which our perception of time can be altered. Divided into
three parts, the book provides a contemporary overview of the study
of the temporal mind. It begins by introducing the fundamental
processes of time perception; how it can be measured, how it can be
hindered, and to what extent it can be enhanced. It proceeds to
explain how cognitive and psychological disorders, such as
schizophrenia, ADHD, and anxiety can be linked to temporal
dysfunction, and answers common questions that face us all: why
does time seem to go faster as we age? How do our emotions affect
our perception of time? How does our relationship with time differ
from others? Providing comprehensive answers to the most pertinent
questions of time perception, this book is an ideal companion for
advanced students and researchers interested in the psychology of
time.
