Abstract

Hoerl & McCormack's theory defines temporal behavior from an awareness of time, but lacks one critical element: the impact of "psychological presence" in the "moment now." Central to experience of temporal non-stationarity: "Nowness" links future with past in the context of time flow. Does this differ between species? Evidence suggests not: Different temporal experiences between species requires greater critical evaluation.
