• Empirical studies have demonstrated that self-relevant information affects temporal order perception. Therefore, the question arises of whether personal values-which are the core components of the self-influence temporal order perception. To explore this problem, we chose harmony, one of the most common values in Chinese culture, as the starting point. First, the harmony scale was used to measure the harmony values of the participants, and the participants were divided into high- and low-harmony groups. The validity of the grouping was then verified using an implicit-association test. Furthermore, two temporal order judgment (TOJ) tasks were used to explore the impact of harmony values on temporal order perception. The results revealed that in both TOJ tasks, participants in the high-harmony group tended to perceive harmonious stimuli before non-harmonious stimuli, while the effect was not found in the low-harmony group. We conclude that harmony values affect temporal order perception, and only if the values are important to the individual.
