We systematically examined the impact of emotional stimuli on time perception in a temporal reproduction paradigm where participants reproduced the duration of a facial emotion stimulus using an oval-shape stimulus or vice versa. Experiment 1 asked participants to reproduce the duration of an angry face (or the oval) presented for 2,000 ms. Experiment 2 included a range of emotional expressions (happy, sad, angry, and neutral faces as well as the oval stimulus) presented for different durations (500, 1,500, and 2,000 ms). We found that participants over-reproduced the durations of happy and sad faces using the oval stimulus. By contrast, there was a trend of under-reproduction when the duration of the oval stimulus was reproduced using the angry face. We suggest that increased attention to a facial emotion produces the relativity of time perception.
我们在一个时间再现范式中系统地检查了情绪刺激对时间感知的影响，其中参与者使用椭圆形刺激或反之亦然来再现面部情绪刺激的持续时间。实验 1 要求参与者再现呈现 2000 毫秒的愤怒面孔（或椭圆形）的持续时间。实验 2 包括一系列情绪表达（快乐、悲伤、愤怒和中性面孔以及椭圆形刺激）呈现不同的持续时间（500、1500 和 2000 毫秒）。我们发现，参与者使用椭圆形刺激过度再现了快乐和悲伤面孔的持续时间。相比之下，当使用愤怒面孔再现椭圆形刺激的持续时间时，出现了一种低估的趋势。我们认为，对面部情绪的注意力增加会产生时间感知的相对性。
