对年轻人和老年人在持续时间判断上的差异进行了回顾。以前的研究不清楚这种差异是否存在，如果存在，如何解释。荟萃分析显示了大量的年龄相关差异。老年人给予较大的口头估计，并作出较短的生产时间比年轻的成年人。有没有年龄相关的差异，在生殖的持续时间或心理物理斜率相关的判断和目标的持续时间。老年人对持续时间的估计比年轻人的估计更易变。研究结果进行了讨论的起搏器频率和注意力资源。关于非时间和时间信息处理之间的注意力分配的解释最好地解释了这一发现。
Differences in duration judgments made by younger and older adults were reviewed. Previous research is unclear about whether such differences exist and, if so, how they may be explained. The meta-analyses revealed substantial age-related differences. Older adults gave larger verbal estimates and made shorter productions of duration than did younger adults. There were no age-related differences in reproduction of duration or in psychophysical slope relating judged and target duration. Older adults' duration estimates were more variable than were those of younger ones. Findings are discussed in terms of pacemaker rate and attentional resources. An explanation regarding divided attention between nontemporal and temporal information processing best explains the findings.
