Abstract The present study examined how pattern randomness influences time perception. Randomness was defined as the amount of pattern entropy. The stimuli were random-dot patterns with low or high amounts of ...entropy. We used a time-reproduction task in which observers matched the duration of high- and low-random dot patterns to that of a dot matrix presented previously. The results from 10 observers showed that the reproduced durations of high-randomness patterns were longer than those of low-randomness patterns, indicating that the pattern randomness is one of the critical factors in time encoding. We discussed that the unequal allocation of attention to spatial patterns and to time leads to differences in perceived durations.show more
