Abstract

The time error (TE) in the comparison of durations of visual stimuli has been studied here, varying systematically the stimulus duration and the interstimulus interval (ISI). The method of constant stimuli was used. The results showed that for short stimulus durations (.26 and.38 sec), positive TEs increased as the ISI increased, and that for long durations (1.12 and 5.6 sec), negative TEs decreased as the ISI increased. The same trend of results as that obtained in the present Experiment 3 has previously been reported by researchers who used the method of reproduction. The conclusion is reached that the method of constant stimuli and the method of reproduction are consistent methods when only the trend of results is considered.
