Assuming the action from the string theory and taking into account the dynamical freedom of a dilaton and its coupling to matter fluid, we show that fundamental ‘constants’ in string theories are independent of the ‘radius’ of the internal space. Since the scalar related to the ‘constants’ is coupled to the 4-dimensional gravity and matter fluid in the same way as in the Jordan-Brans-Dicke theory with ω=−1, it must be massive and can get a mass easily through some symmetry breaking mechanism (e.g. the SUSY breaking due to a gluino condensation). Consequently, time variation of fundamental constants is too small to be observed.

We discuss possible time changes of the 28 fundamental constants of the Standard Model of Particle Physics. In particular, we concentrate on those constants, which are not known very precisely. Time variations of those constants might have been overlooked thus far. Future experiments should provide better limits, or might discover a time variation.
