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.

Inroduction:
Source credibility is fundamental to how medical information is processed,yet the underlying neurocognitive mechanisms remain poorly understood. We investigated how two credibility cues — a doctor’s expertise (years of work experience) and aggregate patient ratings (star ratings) — modulate brain responses to veracity cues (‘True’ vs. ‘False’) presented after health- related headlines.
Methods:
We recorded EEG from ...

Visual statistical learning (visual SL) is the ability to implicitly extract statistical patterns from visual stimuli. Visual SL could be assessed using online measures, evaluating reaction times (RTs) to stimuli during task performance, and offline measures, which assess recognition of the presented patterns.

Abstract
Background
Knowledge abstractness is one of the factors affecting learning outcomes, particularly in learning from multimedia texts. However, most previous studies on multimedia learning have focused on manipulating pictorial abstractness, while the role of text topic abstractness remains largely unexplored.
Aims
1. Examine how topic abstractness influences multimedia learning outcomes when pictorial abstractness remains constant. 2. Investigate how ...

Introduction:
Understanding how we perceive and interpret the movements of other living beings is fundamental to social interaction, survival, and navigating our dynamic environment. Traditional studies of biological motion perception have predominantly employed simplified stimuli, such as point-light displays, which sacrifice ecological validity for experimental control.

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 ...
