Time Perception with Dr Devin Terhune: Temporal distortion

The transcript discusses the study of time perception, comparing laboratory and ecological paradigms. It explores temporal distortions in disorders like depersonalization and derealization. A study on neurotypical individuals using the dissociative experiences scale is detailed, revealing insights into metacognition and time perception. The discussion extends to broader metacognitive deficits in conditions like schizophrenia, highlighting the complexity of these phenomena.

What is the Dissociative Experiences Scale and what does it measure?

What are some common everyday experiences of dissociation mentioned in the text?

What findings were reported regarding the time perception of individuals with dissociative experiences in the study?
