--Alt-Boundary-24167.27908860 Content-type: text/plain; charset=US-ASCII Content-transfer-encoding: 7BIT Content-description: Mail message body Dear list, students of mine plan to do a course project on the precission of interval timing perception. The problem shall be addressed in two lines - interval bisection - how precise has a signal to be in the middle of an interval to perceive the two resulting intervals as being equal. Does this depent on the duration of the original interval, does it depent on signal properties (tone pulse vs click, pulse frequency) - if three signals are given in a series, how precisely has the timing of the third stimulus match the interval between the first two signals in order to perceive the two resulting intervals as equal Could anybody please offer some hints to studies on these topics so we can start an in depth literature search.
