Abstract

The effects of stimulus duration on perceptual onset and offset latency were compared in vision and audition. It was found that perceptual onset latency was independent of stimulus duration but that the perceptual offset latency was longer for brief stimuli than for stimuli that exceeded a critical duration. For stimuli longer than the critical duration, the perceptual onset and offset latencies were equal: The same temporal relationships were found in both modalities. The results indicate that for any specific stimulus parameters, reduction of stimulus duration results, ultimately, in a perception of fixed duration.
