Multiple comparative and experimental studies demonstrate that time perception and visual temporal resolution differ significantly across animals, scaling with body size and metabolic rates.

Metabolic rate and body size are linked with perception of temporal information
2013 · cited by 169
A phylogenetic comparative analysis demonstrates that body size and metabolic rate constrain the temporal resolution at which visual information is perceived, favoring finer timescales in smaller species.

The analysis

The claim states that time perception differs significantly in animals of different body sizes. Paper [0] directly uses a phylogenetic comparative analysis to show that body size and metabolic rate constrain temporal information processing, supporting the claim. Paper [1] shows high temporal acuities in birds that relate to metabolic and size constraints. The retrieved evidence clearly and directly supports the claim.
