Call for Papers for a Special Issue of Timing & Time Perception: The Golden Anniversary of Timing: The Internal Clock Model
Call for Papers for a Special Issue of Timing & Time
Perception: The Golden Anniversary of Timing: The Internal Clock Model
Hosted by John Wearden & Argiro Vatakis
The year of 2013 marks the 50th anniversary of the
publication of Michel Treisman’s classic paper – Temporal discrimination and
the indifference interval. Implications for a model of the “internal clock”.
Psychological Monographs: General and Applied, 77(13),
1963, 1-31. By positing an “internal clock” based on a pacemaker, counter,
store, and comparator this paper provided a foundation for the study of timing
and time perception, which led to the subsequent development and expression of
scalar timing theory as an information-processing model (Gibbon, Church, and
Meck, 1984). The journal of Timing & Time Perception celebrates this
anniversary through a special issue devoted to one of the most popular
approaches to understanding time perception – the “internal clock”. This
special issue aims to cover historically the precursors of the internal clock
(e.g., Alderson, 1974; Bell, 1966; Francois, 1927; Hoagland, 1933, 1935), the
development of Treisman’s
1963 model, and current research directions and
experiments conducted using the “internal clock” as a guiding principle in the
understanding of timing and time perception in humans and other animals.
