My research aims to uncover some of the processes involved in human time perception. I am looking at how different perceptual, emotional and individual difference variables influence our subjective perception of time.
My main focus at the moment is on a phenomenon called The Planning Fallacy, a term coined by Kahneman and Tversky in 1977 which describes the well-known phenomenon that we often underestimate the time it will take us to complete a task. |
