Abstract
Prior studies have repeatedly shown that short sounds were judged to be of longer duration than physically equivalent lights. Six experiments are reported which confirm the robustness of this auditory-visual difference in time judgment and highlight two factors which contribute to its continued presence, movement for vision and intensity for audition.Keywords
