While we perceive events in our environment through multiple sensory systems, we nevertheless perceive all of these events as occupying a single unified timeline. Time, as we perceive it, is unified. I argue that existing accounts of the perceived unity of time fail. Instead, the perceived unity of time must be constructed by integrating our initially fragmented timekeeping capacities. However, existing accounts of multimodal integration do not tell us how this might occur. Something new is needed. I finish the paper by articulating the hurdles that must be overcome to provide an account of the perceived unity of time.

感知的时间统一

虽然我们通过多个感官系统感知环境中的事件，但我们仍然将所有这些事件视为占据一个统一的时间线。在我们看来，时间是统一的。我认为现有的关于时间统一性的解释是失败的。相反，必须通过整合我们最初支离破碎的计时能力来构建感知到的时间统一。然而，现有的多模式整合并没有告诉我们这是如何发生的。需要一些新的东西。我通过阐明必须克服的障碍来完成这篇论文，以说明时间的统一性。
