Making sense of time

John A. Michon

European Review, 2001, vol. 9, issue 1, 43-58

Abstract: From the psychonomic point of view time is the conscious experiential product of the processes that enable the (human) organism to organize itself adaptively so that its behaviour stays tuned to the sequential contingencies afforded by its environment. This paper reviews some recent insights into the functioning of the timekeepers – clocks and regulators, organic and virtual – that make up the human ‘sense of time’.
