If you have a display filter, so that not all of the packets in the capture are displayed, "seconds since previous captured packet" is the difference between the packet's time stamp and the previous packet in the capture, regardless of whether that packet is displayed or not, and "seconds since previous displayed packet" is the difference between the packet's time stamp and the previous packet in the list of displayed packets.
