Overlearned sequence and perceived time: possible involvement of attention

Abstract

Overlearned sequences, characterized by specific ordinal ranks for each element, elicit strong predictions when presented in their natural order. The present study aimed to test the role of predictions on the perceived duration in a stimulus series that followed an overlearned sequence. Participants judged the duration of the target digit in a sequence that followed a regular or random order, while the overall context in which these sequences were presented was varied in two blocks. The results suggest that, with the possible involvement of attention, the target element that followed the regular order was perceived to be relatively accurate. The violation of an overlearned sequence leads to an underestimation of duration, particularly when the participants are aware of the violation. Further, the perceived duration of the target element in an overlearned sequence does not modulate as a function of the global context. These findings contribute to our understanding of the differential effect of various predictive processes on perceived time.
