Interoceptive signals and emotional states shape temporal perception through heart rate modulation
Frontiers in Psychology. 2025. Vol. 16. Article 1610347.
This study investigated the relationships between interoceptive signals, emotions, and time perception, with a particular focus on the mediating role of heart rate (HR). Emotional video stimuli were used to elicit specific emotional responses, while participants’ attentional focus was manipulated (internal vs. external) to examine its influence on temporal judgments.
Emotional content significantly influenced time perception. Negative and neutral videos were underestimated in duration, while positive videos showed smaller estimation errors. Heart rate partially mediated the effect of emotions on time perception, with slower heart rates linked to greater underestimation of durations. However, this mediating effect was smaller compared to other potential mechanisms not explored in this study. Contrary to prior research, no correlation was found between interoceptive accuracy and time perception precision, likely due to methodological differences in task design and measures of interoception. An internal focus of attention was associated with greater underestimation of time and lower normalized heart rate. However, no significant interaction was observed between attentional focus, heart rate, and emotional valence.
These findings highlight the multifaceted nature of time perception, emphasizing the role of both physiological processes and subconscious interoceptive signals. The partial mediation of heart rate underscores its importance in shaping temporal judgments, while the lack of interaction with attentional focus suggests that these effects may be driven by unconscious mechanisms. The results contribute to a deeper understanding of how emotions and bodily signals interact to shape time perception and underscore the need for further research into individual differences and unconscious influences on temporal judgments.

Hypergraphs provide a natural framework for representing neurophysiological interactions distributed across sets of sensors. A key methodological question is how hyperedges should be defined from frequency-resolved electroencephalography/magnetoencephalography (EEG/MEG) data. We demonstrate a construction strategy in which hyperedges are obtained from canonical coherence (caCOH), an extension of coherence that estimates coupling between multidimensional signal spaces. To ...

EEG recordings are often affected by the loss or corruption of individual channels due to electrode detachment, poor scalp contact, or external interference. Such channels must be accurately reconstructed before further analysis. In this study, we investigate Next-Generation Reservoir Computing (NG-RC) as a data-driven approach for reconstructing corrupted EEG channels and compare its performance with ...

Governance is rapidly digitising, yet how citizens’ emotions towards algorithmic policy decision-making relate to their trust in governance institutions remains understudied. Drawing on the affect-as-information model, we argue that emotions constitute a distinct input into institutional trust judgements, operating both directly and by conditioning the weight of cognitive evaluations. We test this argument with a ...
