If you re confused about the passage of time, you’re not alone. We know that each hour is divided into 60 equal minutes, and each minute into 60 identical seconds; but why do some hours feel longer than others? And is the pandemic changing our perception of time?
Dr. Ruth Ogden aims to answer these questions in her research, she tells Ray D’Arcy. She also has a few practical tips on making the passage of time more bearable in lockdown.
Dr. Ogden is an Associate Professor specialising in Experimental Psychology at Liverpool John Moores University. Her research covers the UK and Argentina during the pandemic and it’s already yielded some incredible results about how people’s perception of time has altered during the past year or so:
Young Adults Who Moved Home During COVID-19 Are Making Over Their Childhood Roomsâand Their Mindsets
Gen Z and Millennials who have returned to their old bedrooms are reclaiming their spaces and senses of self.
The coronavirus crisis has caused a sea change in how we use spaceâand a surge in reconfigured households, especially young adults moving back in with their parents. According to the Pew Research Center, 52 percent of 18- to 29-year-olds in the United States were in this category as of July 2020. Even accounting for students who would normally be on campus, that is the highest rate since the Great Depression.

The university has almost finished its long-awaited redevelopment of a 3.5-acre gateway site next to Liverpool Lime Street station into a students’ centre and sports building.
Main contractor Morgan Sindall Construction has reached practical completion on 280,000 sq ft of new facilities, which are expected to be open in time for the 2021/22 academic year in September, subject to Government Covid-19 guidance.
Liverpool John Moores University sought to regenerate the site of the former Royal Mail sorting office in Liverpool City Centre through its £64.5m scheme, which won planning approval in 2018 after a previous deferral by the council.
The completed project comprises a five-storey Student Life Building on the corner of Copperas Walk and Skelhorne Street. This will house a range of student-facing services including an advice and wellbeing centre, career advisory services, a student union, general teaching and common learning space.
Let me start with an embarrassing confession: for years, patients with a weight problem were among my least favourite cases to deal with as a doctor.
Back then they filled me with despair, because despite giving them the suggestions set out in official guidelines, they rarely if ever lost weight, and the health of those with type 2 diabetes so often just got worse.
When I look back, I see now that it was my fault: I gave poor advice, then blamed my patients when it didn t work.
But now I ve found a proven way to help them. And these days I actually enjoy helping people lose weight because we re seeing such great results with this in my GP practice.
