Perception of time: Delay of estimation under auditory and visual tasks with type-A measures

The perception of lime is likely to be lengthened when estimates of duratio n are delayed rather than given immediately as reported by Vitulli and Crim mins in 1999. The present study sought boundary conditions for this robust effect. A multivariate analysis of variance showed a reliable main effect f or delay of estimation, yet comparisons between auditory versus visual shor t-term memory tasks showed no differences in time estimations. The analysis showed weak interactions between sex and delay of estimation and between s ex and delay of estimation on Jenkins Activity Survey-Job Involvement score s.
