Phenomenological Space-Time: Toward an Experiential Relativity

It is suggested that spatial scale may be a principal mediator in the experience of time as subjects observing differently scaled environments undergo systematic shifts in theExperience of time.

Abstract

Subjects observing differently scaled environments undergo systematic shifts in the experience of time. The experience of temporal duration is compressed relative to the clock in the same proportion as scale-model environments being observed are compressed relative to the full-sized environment. This research suggests that spatial scale may be a principal mediator in the experience of time.
