Distorted time perception in patients with neurocognitive impairment.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Time perception is known to be distorted in patients with neuropsychiatric disorders. Therefore, this study aims to investigate the correlation between cognitive decline and time distortion by examining time perception in participants with neurocognitive impairment (Alzheimer's disease [AD], vascular dementia [VD], and Parkinson's disease dementia [PDD]) compared to those with subjective cognitive impairment (SCI).

Methods

Overall, 569 participants with cognitive decline complaints between 2013 and 2022 were investigated. Participants were subjected to a verbal estimation task, time production task, time comparison task, and neuropsychological assessments.

Results

Time perception abilities were distorted in patients with neurocognitive impairment compared t
