Does anyone know anything about a Swiss man who supposedly trained himself as a human chronometer? 24.215.77.125 01:53, 14 September 2006 (UTC)Pharox
I don't think Hawkings' suggestion should be included in the article as it has no experimental support.
anyone have any info on how a computer users sense of time is altered? like time seems to pass more slowly for them? Especially prevelant when playing video games.
Does anyone have any information about how someone's perception of time can be altered when they are the one causing the event? Anything relevant to Dr. David Eagleman's or Benjamin Libet's work would be appreciated. Bella'sTwilight 05:34, 12 March 2007 (UTC)
In Chemistry, chemical reactions are often calculated as going to completion and next going back to a midpoint. There is the objective possibility that those reactions are like the calculations. If biological chemical reactions are anything like that, there would be reactions in the body - including the brain - that swing back and forth. Such swinging would likely act as the pendulum of a biological chronometer. Verification is only a matter of finding which reactions are responsible. P.S. Hawking's idea is not true to any physical process.. it doesn't seem relevant. 74.195.25.78 ( talk) 18:15, 30 December 2007 (UTC)
This was what I was talking about. I'll try and find the reference in the meantime, but I don't think I will be able to. Sincerely, InternetHero ( talk) 21:43, 4 August 2008 (UTC)
Neural bases and models We have so far highlighted a growing collection of psychophysical findings that suggest that time judgments can distort, recalibrate, reverse, or have a range of resolutions depending on the stimulus and on the state of the viewer.
Reference = 3/10 down.
It can go further though, but that wouldm't be beneficial to most readers. Ummm:
At the level of the behaving animal, experiments in monkeys have shown that posterior parietal neurons can encode signals related to the perception of time. Neurons in lateral intraparietal area (LIP) seem to represent the passage of time relative to a remembered standard duration (Leon and Shadlen, 2003). Janssen and Shadlen (2005) recorded the activity of LIP neurons while monkeys made saccades to peripheral targets after a variable delay period. The timing of the "Go" signal (dimming of the fixation point) was a random value whose probability distribution was fixed throughout a block of trials. The conditional probability of an event given that it has not yet occurred is termed the hazard rate. The subjective hazard rate is a blurred version of the theoretical hazard rate based on the assumption that time is known with uncertainty that scales with elapsed time (Weber's law), a ubiquitous property of time perception. Many LIP neurons modulated their spike rate as a function of elapsed time in a manner that mimicked the subjective hazard rate of the Go signal. Thus, LIP activity appears to signal the animal's subjective perception of time.
It basically has to do with brain-derived neurotrophic factors with enable gorwth among the neurons to establish neural pathways in relation to other "durational-type" thoughts/synaptic plasticity, or other neurotrophics which can establish different voltages, or potential, etc (I think). Either way, disussions are always welcome. In the meantime, I am going to revert in a couple days. Please assume good faith. InternetHero ( talk) 20:19, 5 August 2008 (UTC)

Sense of time article
On the sense of time article, you made this edit which deleted one of my edits pertaining to one of the websites I read once. I didn't know <--- how to put references back then, and it seems I need an account to check out the website again. Please look here. In the 1st article, it said that the more active neurotransmitters produced from brain-derived neurotrophic factors determines the ratio to which we can percieve. Studies in monkeys show that its also the regions of the brain that can add DNA sequences (BDNTs) to other thoughts correlated wit time without the advent of a conscious perception. I can add another reference if you want, but its going to be different. Sincerely, InternetHero ( talk) 19:24, 5 August 2008 (UTC)
Oh. Well, you removed mine too. It's all good, I'm gonna re-add mine, though. I found a new reference anyway. Cheers. InternetHero ( talk) 20:24, 6 August 2008 (UTC)
Copyright violation
Hello. On this edit you copy-pasted a section of an article. If you read the licencing of that site, you'd see that it is not GFDL compatible. That is why I had to put it in my own words. Let's try and work together on this. Again, I'd have to go with the easy verifiability clause and leave my addition. InternetHero ( talk) 11:17, 8 August 2008 (UTC)
It's funny how I'm replying to myself now... :-) Anyway, I try to implement what Wikipedia is. I don't think that simple definitions should be contained—but rather preserved and contributed to. I suggest a truce and both add to the sentence in question. InternetHero ( talk) 12:26, 8 August 2008 (UTC)
