The duration of moving stimuli is overestimated compared to that of static stimuli (motion-induced duration dilation). In contrast, after participants visually adapt to a moving stimulus, they underestimate the duration of a following moving stimulus (adaptation-induced duration compression). These two motion-related time distortions have not been examined using the same stimuli within a study, and it remains unknown whether these phenomena have similar characteristics.

Generally, such integration is influenced by the modality that we attend to. However, for duration perception, it has been shown that when duration information from visual and auditory modalities is integrated, the perceived duration of the visual stimulus leaned toward the duration of the auditory stimulus, irrespective of which modality was attended.
