Time Perception with Dr Devin Terhune: Psychophysical experiments

The video discusses psychophysical timing experiments, focusing on training participants to discriminate between different time intervals using auditory tones. It explains the temporal bisection task and how data is plotted to fit psychometric functions. The video also covers extracting parameters like precision and bias, and their applications in clinical settings. Finally, it addresses the importance of ecological validity and suggests future research directions involving real-world stimuli.

What are some potential applications of the findings from psychophysical timing experiments?

What is the significance of ecological validity in psychological research, particularly in timing experiments?

How might future research in timing experiments differ from current methodologies?
