Summary:
Our attitudes towards an event may vary depending on whether the event has happened or has yet to take place. Philosophers and psychologists explore such psychological past/future asymmetries to reveal what kinds of asymmetries we exhibit, and under what conditions, and how they may reflect particular beliefs about time, or features of time itself.
