Perception of time, distance and rate of motion

Popis výsledku v původním jazyce

The thesis is based on the assumption that subjective perception of the above stated variables is complex process, and the relationships between time, distance and speed of movement are closely interdependent. The exposition of standard visual inputs was realized in the form of video recordings of a passenger view of a car drive in a car with an in-built cruise control. Three digital video recordings were taken in the standardized length of 375 seconds. The speed of the vehicle which moved along the same road section (extending proportionally with the speed) was set to 30 kph (with distance covered 3.125 m), 60 kph (distance covered 6.250 m) and 90 kph (distance covered 9.375 m). The video recordings were complemented with recordings of acoustic signals (at the tempo of 50 BPM or 150 BPM). The relations between the time, distance and speed estimates, their relative accuracy, subjective evaluations of the drive etc. were examined on 943 people (male and female) between 19 - 57 years of age, divided into 11 groups. The most accurate estimates of time were found to be at the speed of 60 kph and tempo of 50 BPM, which can be explained by the closeness to a typical speed experienced in urban traffic and the similarity of the tempo to the established division of a minute into 60 seconds. With growing age of the subjects the time estimate gets more accurate while the speed estimate tends to be overrated; females have a tendency to overrate the distance covered. The speed estimate is majorly influenced by the real speed together with the interaction of speed and the tempo of 150 BPM. The time estimate is connected to the distance estimate; it has no demonstrable relation to the speed estimate. There occurs a distinct underrating of the distance estimate at the speed of 90 kph. With the growing conviction of the accuracy of one&apos;s speed estimate the real accuracy of the estimate decreases.
