Impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on time perception

The impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on time perception, or the 2020 effect, refers to the widespread phenomenon of distorted time perception experienced during the COVID-19 pandemic, particularly the sensation that time was moving unusually slowly or that days blurred together. This effect has been documented in psychological, sociological, and neuroscientific research as a response to the collective trauma, stress, and disruption of daily routines caused by the pandemic.
