Many factors affect the experience of subjective duration. One such factor, immediate repetition, typically results in a subjective contraction of duration for the repeated stimulus, but Matthews (2015) demonstrated that the effect of repetition is modulated by expectations of repetition. Matthews hypothesized a perceptual basis for this effect and proposed a mechanism of action whereby subjective duration is related to the strength of the representation - that is, a stronger representation corresponds to a longer subjective duration - which was later termed the Processing Principle (Matthews & Meck, 2016). Article 1 replicated Matthews' findings and extended them using signal detection methodology to examine the proposed perceptual basis for the effect of expectation. Expectation affected discrimination sensitivity but not response bias, supporting the perceptual hypothesis. The direction of the sensitivity effect, however, suggested that representation for expected repeated stimuli may have been poorer, contrary to the Processing Principle. Implications for our understanding of expectation's effects and their role in related tasks are discussed. Article 2 directly examined the relationship between representation and perceived duration by manipulating the visual clarity of task stimuli in order to weaken the perceptual representation of the stimulus. Although weaker representations should result in shorter subjective durations according to the Processing Principle, stimulus degradation did not affect the relationship between repetition and expectation. Furthermore, perceived duration was uniformly longer, rather than shorter, for trials that contained a degraded stimulus, regardless of trial type, expectation of trial type, or which stimulus of the trial pairs was degraded. The results suggested, however, that participants formed a second, global expectation for degradation, and longer subjective durations for trials with expected degradation could reflect representational sharpening processes at this level. Altogether, findings for Article 2 are not wholly consistent with the Processing Principle, but neither can the relationship between representation and subjective duration be ruled out at this time.

Time and beauty are two of our most visceral perceptions. Yet, their nature is seldom questioned. In this ground-breaking new work, Adrian Bejan — a true 'original' among physicists — explains, in a scholarly yet colorful style, the scientific basis for the perception of time and beauty.Organized into three main ideas, the book begins first with the perception of time. The author expounds on why we feel that time flies faster as we get older. Perceived time, also called 'mind time,' is different from clock time. In this context, time is another word for 'perceived change'. Next, readers will discover that beauty is appealing because beautifully-shaped images are scanned faster by two eyes. To observe our immediate surroundings and to understand them faster is highly advantageous to survival; hence, there is an underlying evolutionary advantage to our discernment for ideal ratios, shapes, and beauty at large. Finally, time and beauty are jointly understood to explain why the global pandemic had decelerated our mind time. This understanding arms us with techniques to slow down our mind time (which accelerates with age), and to create the conditions for living longer and more creatively.Scientists may have contemplated aspects of time and beauty separately. In contrast, the author submits an original and rewarding approach to understanding them together. In the process, key questions to our cognition are answered. Why does the mind 'try' to make sense of a new mental image? Why is there a natural tendency to organize a new input and mentally position it among past perceptions? Through physics, the book offers a general answer: to empower the individual with speed and clarity of thought, understanding, decision-making and movement. The same answer holds for the other disparate perceptions illustrated in this book, from time and beauty to ideas, message, shape, perspective, art, science, illusions, and dreams.

Carlton Westerfield, murderer-for-hire, has come home to Texas. After a years wandering around the Caribbean, he believes that Faustino Perez and Gregorio Molina, competing drug lords, have eliminated each other, making it safe for him to return to San Antonio. While delaying his return by spending a few days in Galveston, two Drug Enforcement Agency types materialize at his hotel and inform him that his homecoming will not be going exactly as planned. Perez and Molina are alive and well, they tell him, and they want Carlton to work for them as an informant in order to put his old adversaries away for good. Carlton first laughs at their offer, but agrees to take on the task when the agents remind him that he might get to find out about his former lover-turned-enemy, the mysterious Paula Hendricks. It seems that she has become involved up to her pretty neck with the investigation and everyone surrounding it. Curious to learn the truth about her, he takes the job, but soon learns that the truth about anything, especially Paula Hendricks, is more elusive than he dreamed possible.
