Symposia: Time perception: from sensation to memory

307. The link between space and time along the human cortical hierarchy

Gianfranco Fortunato (International School for Advanced Studies (SISSA))

9/24/24, 9:00 AM

Talk in simposio

In humans, very few studies have directly tested the link between the neural coding of time and space. Here we combined ultra-high field functional magnetic resonance imaging with neuronal-based modeling to investigate how and where the processing and the representation of a visual stimulus duration is linked to that of its spatial location. Results show a transition in the neural response to...

191. Time perception: from sensation to memory

Alice Teghil (Sapienza Università di Roma), Luigi Micillo (Università di Padova)

Abstract complessivo di un simposio

Although no dedicated organ or sensory system exists to perceive time, temporal processing is essential to cognition at many levels, from sensory discrimination to the ability to mentally project oneself in the past and future. These processes extend across different temporal scales, ranging from milliseconds to seconds, days and even years. Despite the key role of time perception in cognitive...

305. What is the role of physiological activation in shaping temporal representations?

Luigi Micillo (Dipartimento di Psicologia Generale - Università di Padova)

9/24/24, 9:20 AM

Talk in simposio

Temporal representations are fundamental for delving into our daily lives, yet they are susceptible to distortion from various factors, including emotional experiences. This distortion is often attributed to physiological activation, where heightened arousal can accelerate our internal clock, leading to an over-estimation of time. Despite the abundance of studies delving into the association...

309. The embodiment of time: exploring the link between bodily states and temporal experience

Alice Teghil (University of Rome "La Sapienza")

9/24/24, 9:40 AM

Talk in simposio

Substantial evidence supports a causal influence of bodily signals on the experience of time. Here, a series of studies will be presented investigating how interoceptive and sensorimotor processing affect time perception from the range of seconds to the long-term representation of memories across time. First, evidence will be discussed supporting a dynamic perspective on mechanisms involved in...

235. Temporal memory for complex events

Dr Matteo Frisoni (Università di Bologna)

9/24/24, 10:00 AM

Talk in simposio

Remembering when events occurred is a key component of episodic memory, but the neurocognitive mechanisms underlying this ability remain poorly understood. In a series of studies, we investigated the role of prior knowledge and event representation on temporal memory for complex events. Different groups of participants were asked to report when short video clips extracted from a previously...
