Hi,

I'm looking for a citation relating to change blindness. Specifically, on the case of change blindness being exacerbated by a pause between the states of change.

I seem to recall reading about an experiment where participants were shown a photograph and asked to identify when they perceived that something had changed and then explain the change.

Normal 0 false false false MicrosoftInternetExplorer4 Normal 0 false false false MicrosoftInternetExplorer4

When the switch from one state to another was immediate many of the participants could identify that there was a change, yet when the photograph was removed from the screen for even a fraction of a second the percentage of participants successfully  identifying a change dropped off significantly .

Normal 0 false false false MicrosoftInternetExplorer4 Normal 0 false false false MicrosoftInternetExplorer4

This IxDA post http://www.ixda.org/node/25537 mentiones a similar experiment, but it doesn't cite any specific research.

 

Thanks,

Andy,

I think you'll find that Ron Rensink is an appropriate resource:

I also think there was a thread about this earlier in the year which also has some resources, try:

Change Blindness

Take care,

Change blindness is also cited on "Designing Web Interfaces" from Bill Scott and Theresa Neil, page 102.

Andy -

Just to clarify, without the pause, normal motion detection in visual perception finds the changes very easily. With the pause, or alternatively, with a cut-scene or very slow changes, the effects are not as easily observed.

See Simons, D., & Rensink, R. (2005). Change blindness: Past, present, and future. Trends in cognitive sciences, 9(1), 16-20.

Here is a link to a change blindness test we used in the HCI Master's program.
