Controlled Threat Accelerates Motion Perceived Speed

To presumably trigger controlled threats; we installed virtual flames in front of our moving stimuli; in conclusion, the average perceived speed is highly boosted. Lengthy exhalations can reduce the arousal and therefore putting the threat under control, see reference 3. Deep exhalations, however, boost the motion perceived speed, see reference 4. Since our ultra-small sensor senses lengthier exhalation periods during the presentation of the virtual flames; together, we theorized that controlled but not uncontrolled threats catalyze the motion perceived speed.
