“…Because of the large number of highly ambiguous results, in his comp prehensive reviews of the influence of filled and empty intervals on performance on duration discrimination in humans, Grondin (2001Grondin ( , 2003 arrived at the conclusion that, to date, no definitive statement on this issue can be made. Most interestingly, similarly inconclusive results have been reported from animal studies (e.g., Kraemer, Randall, & Brown, 1997;MacInnis, 2007;Miki & Santi, 2005;Santi, Keough, Gagne, & van Rooyen, 2007;Santi, Miki, Hornyak, & Eidse, 2006). At this point, it seems that differences in duration discrimination with filled and empty intervals may depend on various factors, such as the duration of the intervals to be compared, the sensory y p , p y modality in which the intervals are presented, the physical characteristics of the markers defining the empty intervals, or the psychophysical procedure applied (cf.…”
