abstract = {Reduced timing abilities have been reported in older adults
and are associated with pathological cognitive decline.
However, time perception experiments often lack ecological
validity. Especially the reduced complexity of experimental
stimuli and the participants' awareness of the time-related
nature of the task can influence lab-assessed timing
performance and thereby conceal age-related differences. An
approximation of more naturalistic paradigms can provide
important information about age-related changes in timing
abilities. To determine the impact of higher ecological
validity on timing experiments, we implemented a paradigm
that allowed us to test (1) the effect of embedding the
to-be-timed stimuli within a naturalistic visual scene and
(2) the effect of retrospective time judgements, which are
more common in real life than prospective judgements. The
results show that compared with out-of-context stimuli,
younger adults benefit from a naturalistic embedding of
stimuli (reflected in higher precision and less errors),
whereas the performance of older adults is reduced when
confronted with naturalistic stimuli. Differences between
retrospective and prospective time judgements were not
modulated by age. We conclude that, potentially driven by
difficulties in suppressing temporally irrelevant
environmental information, the contextual embedding of
naturalistic stimuli can affect the degree to which age
influences the performance in time perception tasks.},
