Description:
This study provides additional empirical evidence to the
research concerning the effects of gender and age on
retrospective time judgements using data obtained from a
Spanish database with more than 40,000 individual
observations on time estimations. Statistical analyses were
performed using the Levene F-test and the t-test of variances
and means, respectively. The most important results of the
study are as follows: i) differences in time estimation in
relation to gender largely depend on the age groups analysed,
with greater differences observed in the younger age group;
and ii) a monotonous relationship does not exist between
age and time estimations when age is a constituent factor in
time judgements.
