前瞻性时间估计的注意模型的有效性进行了测试，在三个实验。在第一个实验中，两个变量被操纵：（1）在估计的时间间隔内的非时间信息处理负荷，和（2）时间估计方法，即生产的时间与第二个任务的性能，或再现的时间立即终止后的任务，其持续时间必须测量。正如预测的那样，产生的时间长度和信息处理负荷所需的同时任务之间的正相关关系，和再现的时间长度和信息处理负荷之间的负相关关系，在估计interval，被发现，结果被复制在第二个实验中，其中口头估计的时间也被测量和估计的时间间隔的客观持续时间是不同的。口头估计获得的结果的模式是类似的再现的。第三个实验的结果表明，生产和再现时间与时钟时间呈正相关。结果被解释为支持前瞻性时间估计的注意力模型。
The validity of an attentional model of prospective time estimation was tested in three experiments. In the first experiment two variables were manipulated: (1) nontemporal information processing load during the estimated interval, and (2) time estimation method, ie production of time simultaneously with the performance of a second task, or reproduction of time immediately upon termination of a task whose duration has to be measured. As predicted, a positive relationship between produced time length and information processing load demanded by a simultaneous task, and a negative relationship between reproduced time length and information processing load during the estimated interval, were found. The results were replicated in a second experiment in which verbal estimates of time were also measured and the objective duration of the estimated interval was varied. The pattern of results obtained for verbal estimates was similar to that obtained for reproduced ones. The results of a third experiment indicated that produced and reproduced times were positively correlated with clock time. The results are interpreted as supporting an attentional model of prospective time estimation.
