Mental chronometry can be defined as the measurement of response time and has been a fundamental tool in the non-invasive study of sensory perception and cognition and in human task performance over more than a century. Mental chronometry has evolved from different methodologies and mathematical models into a standard paradigm to study unsolved problems in human neuroscience and psychophysics. Typical examples are the extensive research on simple and choice reaction times in perceptual-motor tasks, response timing; estimation of temporal intervals, temporal-order detection, etc. In addition, the combination of brain imaging and neurophysiological techniques with mental chronometry has opened new perspectives and has provided new insights into temporal coding, organization and efficiency of internal processing stages and neural activity in multiple tasks. Examples are the analysis of reaction times together with event-related potentials, transcranial magnetic stimulation, functional magnetic resonant imaging, etc. This Research Topic will focus on recent advances of mental chronometry at all levels of analysis. Thus we welcome hypothesis & theory, methods, opinion, reviews, mini reviews, perspective, clinical case study and original research papers on the fundamentals on mental chronometry; papers at the interface between mental chronometry and other non-invasive techniques and papers on mental chronometry with applications in areas such as computational neuroscience, neural networks, brain diseases, animal models, artificial intelligence, robotics, etc.

This book is about time and its powerful influence on our personal and collective daily life. It presents the most comprehensive and up-to-date overview of contemporary knowledge on temporal psychology inspired by Zimbardo's work on Time Perspective (TP). With contributions from renowned and promising researchers from all over the globe, and at the interface of social, personality, cognitive and clinical psychology, the handbook captures the breadth and depth of the field of psychological time. Time perspective, as the way people construe the past, the present and the future, is conceived and presented not only as one of the most influential dimensions in our psychological life leading to self-impairing behaviors, but also as a facet of our person that can be de-biased and supportive for well-being and happiness. Written in honor of Philip G. Zimbardo on his 80th birthday and in acknowledgement of his leading role in the field, the book contains illustrations of the countless studies and applications that his theory has stimulated, and captures the theoretical, methodological and practical pathways he opened by his prolific research.
