Ive thought about this for a long time and came to the philosophical conclusion that it was probably true and an example of the theory of relativity. Cool to see it studied!

People with ADHD experience time differently to those without the condition. It’s not recognised enough.
Neurodivergant people in general more than likely.

So when I leave my dog at home while I work it really does feel like a long time for her?

This synopsis refers to time but isn’t it more accurate to say various beings perceive motion differently?

Maybe the fly, dog, and human all perceive a lifetime of equal length

Okay, so how do some birds make it to their 80s? If they’re able to fly their perception of time can’t be all that slow.

I think all that can be drawn from this is that perception of “framerate” is correllated to reaction times, speed at which the animal moves, and environment in which it lives. To extrapolate that to the human experience of time would be anthropomorphism.
For humans, the time to percieve reality is 1/10 of a second— meaning that everything we experience is 1/10th of a second in the past. As I understand it, this is because of the time it takes for neurons to transmit various senses to the brain. But according to the article, our framerate is 65Hz, so we can see roughly 6.5 light strobes a in the amount of time it takes to percieve reality.
Btw, yes I use em dashes in my normal writing. I refuse to let AI take that away from me.

Jumping spiders feel like they are a little cusp-y on sharing our time space.

Swear to God I called this so long ago. Always thought when watching ants that they must perceive time in a ’slower‘ frame than we do to account for their movements/lifespan. Idk why I’m irritated that my beliefs are kinda validated haha.

My 2 dogs both go and lay facing the front door around 10 mins every night before my wife walks in from work .im convinced they have some sort of perception of time .

If a person is 1 day old then 1 day is 100% of their life. If they are two days old, then 1 day is 50% of their life. If someone is 100 days old (*about 3 months and a week*), then 1 day is only 1% of their life, but if they are 100 years old than 1 year is only 1% of their life.
It seems like time would appear to be going faster and faster as people age because each year is a shorter and shorter percentage of their life. If a tree is 1,000 years old, then 10 years are only 1% of its entire life.
Even though the article seems to be about motion and how many frames of motion per second are processed, it makes sense how a perception of time would be relative for different living beings.

Benn Jordan had an entire video on this exact same topic a good while back.

[Chronostasis](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chronostasis) is kind of a wild topic. Specifically the stopped clock illusion, always feel like im going down the rabbit hole – ive wondered what perception is, how a second can feel subjective during times of heightened stress and of course, like in the study – how animals like hummingbirds experience a second vs a crow, or even a macaw.
Their lifestyle and lifetime length influencing their perception. How us big dumb humans look like slow giants as perceived by a hummingbird.
This stuff really weirds me out. I dont know a ton about it, despite working with frame rates (film/animation) on the regular, chronostasis always makes me ponder about the concepts of perception
