Does temporal thought extend asymmetrically into the past and the future? Do asymmetries depend on cultural differences in temporal focus? Some studies suggest that people in Western (arguably future-focused) cultures perceive the future as being closer, more valued, and deeper than the past (a future asymmetry), while the opposite is shown in East...

The temporal focus hypothesis (TFH) proposes that whether the past or the future is conceptualized as being located in front depends on temporal focus: the balance of attention paid to the past (tradition) and the future (progress). How general is the TFH, and to what extent can cultures and subcultures be placed on a single line relating time spat...

... For example, Casasanto and Bottini (2014) showed that after brief exposure to mirror-reversed or 90° rotated orthography, left-to-right readers change the direction of their mental timeline from left-to-right to right-toleft. At variance with the horizontal MTLs, which depend on cultural reading and scanning habits, front-back sagittal MTLs are grounded in the functional constraints of forward locomotion and represent a physiologically based and universal phenomenon (Hartmann & Mast, 2012;Rinaldi et al., 2016) that, in some cases, can still be modulated by culturally-based habits (Callizo-Romero et al., 2022). Given the likely different functional origins of horizontal and sagittal MTLs, future studies should assess whether the findings from the present study also extend to the sagittal front-back spatial representation of time. ...

... Moreover, latencies for future temporal references were overall faster than those for the past. It is tempting to interpret this pattern as the result of cultural effects on temporal cognition, as Western cultures pay more attention to the future than to the past (Callizo-Romero et al., 2020;de la Fuente et al., 2014); they feel that the future is closer than the past (Caruso et al., 2013), give it a greater emotional and economic valuation (Caruso et al., 2008;Molouki et al., 2019), and feel more continuity with their future than past selves (Quoidbach et al., 2013). Some studies with Chinese participants (but not all) have found the opposite pattern (Guo et al., 2012;Guo & Spina, 2019;Ji et al., 2019;see Gao (2016), for a balanced review). ...
... Dari, one of the Moroccan dialects, for example, uses a metaphor that couples the future with the direction forward. Beyond specific metaphors, Moroccans also pay more attention to the past and traditions, while Spanish people attach more importance to the future, that is, the "temporal focus" of the two cultures is different (Callizo-Romero et al., 2020). If learning from language is decisive for the sagittal timeline in the congenitally blind, one would expect differences between congenitally blind participants from these two populations. ...
