Abstract
Ratings of duration were obtained for auditory and visual signals ranging, from 1 to 5 sec. The inter-modal correlations were moderately large and of an order of magnitude comparable to the intra-modal correlations. Results were considered to support the notion of mechanisms for judgment of time common to various sensory modalities.
