In conclusion, we provided evidence for an influence of human animacy on time estimates.
It is unlikely that the differential effects of animate and inanimate characters on time estimates resulted from different low-level features of the visual stimuli.
Critically, qualitatively similar effects on time estimates were observed irrespective of whether a moving character or a default static figure was displayed in the scene.
In two different experimental series, we used either a motor interception task or a perceptual time discrimination task as a probe for testing the effects of different scenes on time estimates.
The effect of using a fixed constraint on time estimates was explored by running additional analyses without this constraint.
The fact that time estimates obtained in this way differed by no more than 0.1 (1 million years; mean difference: 0.03 or 300 000 years) suggests that the choice of priors had little effect on time estimates.

However, despite the similarities on the time estimates yielded by the two timing methods, this scenario produces divergence times that are inconsistent with the biogeographic distribution of the Lemuroidea malarial pathogens.
Moreover there was even a smaller effect on the time estimates of the deepest nodes, which were the ones of interest in this study (node M 3.2%, node N 2.1%, node O 1.8% and node P 1.3%).
Although our discussion and conclusions are based on the time estimates obtained using Bayesian methods, we also investigated estimates based on alternative, widely-used smoothing methods.
This approach requires the use of priors on the branching process, yet little is known about their impact on divergence time estimates.
We begin by reporting results on travel time estimates extracted for all origin-destination pairs for which at least 10,000 inter-observation times were discovered.
