The effects of sensory signal characteristics on the duration discrimination of intermodal intervals was investigated in three experiments. Temporal intervals were marked by either the successive presentation of a visual then auditory signal (VA), or by the successive presentation of an auditory then visual signal (AV). The results indicated that (1) VA intervals are generally easier to discriminate than are AV intervals, but this effect depends on the range of duration studied; (2) AV intervals are perceived as longer than VA intervals for durations ranging from 250 to 750 msec; (3) the intensity of the visual markers for both AV and VA intervals does not affect the discrimination; and (4) the perceived duration of an intermodal interval is influenced by the length of the first and second markers. The results are mainly interpreted in terms of (1) a sensory trace left by visual and auditory signals and (2) the detection of these signals.
