THE FLUIDITY F TIME Scientists Uncover How Emotions Alter Time Perception
Banaji, Greenwald, and Nosek Receive Golden Goose Award ObserverVol. 31, No. 8 October 2018 THE FLUIDITY F TIME Scientists Uncover How Emotions Alter Time Perception PLUS Barbara Landau on Shapes and Language Integrative Lifespan Research at Cornell a publication of www.psychologicalscience.org/observer Observer Contents October 2018 Volume 31, Number 8 FEATURES THE FLUIDITY F TIME Scientists Uncover How Emotions Alter Time Perception The study of time perception serves as a hallmark of integrative science, mixing linguistics, cognitive neuroscience, and attention research to explore the ways people feel the minutes and hours pass. And increasingly, this research is focusing on the role that emotion plays in distorting our sense of time. 24 27 Having Fun When Time Flies An experiment shows how manipulating the clock can affect our engagement and enjoyment. 5 Presidential Column Minding Education Findings and concepts in psychological science can spark not only educational innovation, but new ways to assess whether specific teaching methods are effective, APS Fellow Stephen M. Kosslyn says in a guest column. 9 APS Past President Walter Mischel (1930–2018) The pioneering scientific expert on children’s self-control was a driving force behind the advancement of integrative science and international collaboration.

Perceptions of Perceptual Symbols Science Evidence Implicates Sensory-Motor Regions of the Brain in Knowledge Representation (Sect
BEHAVIORAL AND BRAIN SCIENCES (1999) 22, 577–660 Printed in the United States of America Perceptual symbol systems Lawrence W. Barsalou Department of Psychology, Emory University, Atlanta, GA 30322 [email protected] userwww.service.emory.edu/~barsalou/ Abstract: Prior to the twentieth century, theories of knowledge were inherently perceptual. Since then, developments in logic, statis- tics, and programming languages have inspired amodal theories that rest on principles fundamentally different from those underlying perception. In addition, perceptual approaches have become widely viewed as untenable because they are assumed to implement record- ing systems, not conceptual systems. A perceptual theory of knowledge is developed here in the context of current cognitive science and neuroscience. During perceptual experience, association areas in the brain capture bottom-up patterns of activation in sensory-motor areas. Later, in a top-down manner, association areas partially reactivate sensory-motor areas to implement perceptual symbols. The stor- age and reactivation of perceptual symbols operates at the level of perceptual components – not at the level of holistic perceptual expe- riences. Through the use of selective attention, schematic representations of perceptual components are extracted from experience and stored in memory (e.g., individual memories of green, purr, hot). As memories of the same component become organized around a com- mon frame, they implement a simulator that produces limitless simulations of the component (e.g., simulations of purr). Not only do such simulators develop for aspects of sensory experience, they also develop for aspects of proprioception (e.g., lift, run) and introspec- tion (e.g., compare, memory, happy, hungry). Once established, these simulators implement a basic conceptual system that represents types, supports categorization, and produces categorical inferences.
