AboutAbout the lab
Exploring the workings of the mind through the lens of time
The lab experimentally studies the mental processes that give rise to people's subjective perception and behavior, mainly through the lens of time.
Through research on the evaluation of elapsed time, the temporal integration of sensory information, and the perception of motion, the lab aims to uncover the mental foundations that support people's stable experience.
The lab's website presents a wide range of research topics by alumni of its undergraduate and graduate programs, such as the relationship between impressions of people and color images, and the relationship between the emotion of cuteness and the useful field of view.
Key terms
- Temporal integration
- The process of combining information that enters through separate senses into a single percept over time
- Useful field of view
- The extent of the visual field from which a person can take in and process information at one time
