Abstract
This study investigated the effect of accelerated and decelerated rates of walking on judgment of a 40-sec. interval in 52 healthy male Ss. The production method of time estimation was used. Analysis of variance yielded no difference in time estimation in response to the imposed gait tempos. Intra-group variation was large. A low correlation between individual gait tempo and time estimate suggests that individuals with faster gait tempos tend to overestimate an interval of time and those with slower gait tempos tend to underestimate.Keywords
