This research program investigates time perception in humans in the subsecond range. Time perception is a crucial aspect of cognitive functioning but one that is poorly understood. The subsecond scale is particularly relevant because it is the time-frame for crucial tasks such as motor coordination, speech perception and crossmodal integration. This project examines time in an audiovisual context, exploring the cognitive limits of our ability to keep track of time and testing whether time is encoded as a basic feature. These experiments will further our knowledge of time perception and lead to improved models of how the brain encodes time.

该研究项目调查人类在亚秒范围内的时间感知。时间感知是认知功能的一个重要方面，但人们对此知之甚少。亚秒级尤其重要，因为它是运动协调、语音感知和跨模态整合等关键任务的时间框架。该项目在视听环境中检查时间，探索我们跟踪时间的能力的认知极限，并测试时间是否被编码为基本特征。这些实验将加深我们对时间感知的了解，并改进大脑如何编码时间的模型。
