The aim of this study was to compare human time estimation during implicit and explicit timing tasks with short intervals and the same method. A total of 81 adults were divided into 3 groups and completed two tasks with one of three different intervals: 500, 1000, and 2000ms. The results revealed an overestimation for all three intervals of the implicit timing task, while participants overestimated 500ms but underestimated 1000 and 2000ms intervals of the explicit timing task. Moreover, explicit time estimation was more precise than implicit time estimation. We observed the opposite pattern as compared to a few previous studies with long intervals: short intervals were perceived longer in the implicit timing task as compared to the explicit timing task. We concluded that non-temporal contents represent passing time during the implicit timing task but unlike temporal dimension during the explicit timing task. Therefore, even the same method of measurement led to a different performance in implicit and explicit timing tasks. |
