Our sense of time is altered by our emotions to such an extent that time seems to fly when we are having fun and drags when we are bored. Recent studies using standardized emotional material provide a unique opportunity for understanding the neurocognitive mechanisms that underlie the effects of emotion on timing and time perception in the milliseconds-to-hours range. We outline how these new findings can be explained within the framework of internal-clock models and describe how emotional arousal and valence interact to produce both increases and decreases in attentional time sharing and clock speed. The study of time and emotion is at a crossroads, and we outline possible examples for future directions.
我们对时间的感知会因情绪而发生很大改变,以至于我们在开心时觉得时光飞逝,而在无聊时则感觉度日如年。近期使用标准化情绪材料开展的研究为理解神经认知机制提供了独特契机,这些机制是情绪在毫秒到数小时范围内对计时和时间感知产生影响的基础。我们概述了如何在内部时钟模型的框架内解释这些新发现,并描述了情绪唤醒和效价如何相互作用,从而在注意力时间分配和时钟速度方面产生增减变化。时间与情绪的研究正处于十字路口,我们概述了未来可能的研究方向示例。
