The influence of the scalar timing model on human timing research

Abstract

The scalar timing model has provided both a quantitative conceptual framework and experimental procedures for studying time perception in animals and humans. In the present paper, we document the impact of scalar timing on 'human' timing research. We also examine the reciprocal relationship, namely modifications to scalar timing that have resulted from human timing research. Finally, we identify issues in human timing that are not explicitly addressed by the scalar timing model.
