A commentary on a study about psilocybin and time perception argues that the original work's conclusions may be overstated. The commentary suggests that the reported effects of psilocybin on time perception could be influenced by other factors, such as changes in attention or working memory, rather than a direct alteration of an internal clock. It calls for more rigorous controls in future research to isolate the specific cognitive mechanisms affected by psychedelics.
