ELY: A team of scientists at Kyoto University discover that a homeward bound trip feel shorter than outward bound trips, but only after the trip is complete.
Have you ever noticed that the trip home feels shorter than the trip out?
You’re not alone. A number of previous studies have attempted to test this phenomena, known as the “return trip effect,” but none has been able to confirm its existence in the real world. Previous studies, say critics, used trips of durations that were unrealistically short or through environments not found in real life.
But now, research undertaken by Ryosuke Ozawa of Kyoto University, along with colleagues across Japan, suggests that the return trip effect is felt only retrospectively.
