Lecture Two

Hi there, hopefully your heads are not spinning too much after todays session! As I said before it was the hardest one in terms of technicality, hopefully with repetition and reading over the rest of the course it will all drop into place. Here are the papers for next week. Your bullet points for today will be posted here Bullet points when I've done them.

Wearden, J.H. (2002). Traveling in time: A time-left analogue for humans. Journal of Experimental Psychology: Animal Behavior Processes, 28, 200-208.

You might find this one useful, despite the title it is written in English and is very readable, gives a good insight into the history of time perception research
