Repetition blindness and the Colavita effect. by Ngo, M, Sinnett, S, Soto-Faraco, S, Spence, C

Crossmodal change blindness between vision and touch. by Auvray, M, Gallace, A, Tan, H, Spence, C

“…Change blindness is the name given to people's inability to detect changes introduced between two consecutively-presented scenes when they are separated by a distractor that masks the transients that are typically associated with change. …”

Change deafness, an auditory analog of 'Change Blindness' by Chan, J, Spence, C

Spatial modulation of repetition blindness and repetition deafness. by Soto-Faraco, S, Spence, C

“…A similar spatial modulation of visual repetition blindness (RB) was reported when pairs of masked letters were presented visually from either the same or different positions arranged on a semicircle around fixation (Experiment 2). …”

Do "mudsplashes" induce tactile change blindness? by Gallace, A, Tan, H, Spence, C

“…The phenomenon of change blindness (the surprising inability of people to correctly perceive changes between consecutively presented displays), primarily reported in vision, has recently been shown to occur for positional changes presented in tactile displays as well. …”

Inhibition of return and oculomotor control in the blind. by Röder, B, Spence, C, Rösler, F

“…Using a tactile variant of the peripheral spatial cuing paradigm, we show IOR in congenitally blind adults and in an individual who had no eyes. …”

Effects of blindness and anosmia on auditory discrimination of temperature and carbonation of liquids by Oleszkiewicz, A, Schmidt, P, Smith, B, Spence, C, Hummel, T

“…The results of the study indicate that auditory cues are particularly important for the assessment of drink temperature in blind people and carbonation in anosmic individuals. …”

Early vision impairs tactile perception in the blind. by Röder, B, Rösler, F, Spence, C

“…Here, we show that the performance of late, but not of congenitally, blind people was impaired by crossing the hands. …”

Tactile and visual distractors induce change blindness for tactile stimuli presented on the fingertips. by Auvray, M, Gallace, A, Hartcher-O'Brien, J, Tan, H, Spence, C

“…This failure, known as 'change blindness', has been reported within vision, audition, and touch. …”

The failure to detect tactile change: a tactile analogue of visual change blindness. by Gallace, A, Tan, H, Spence, C

“…These results demonstrate that "change blindness" can also affect tactile perception.…”

Audiotactile temporal order judgments in sighted and blind individuals. by Occelli, V, Spence, C, Zampini, M

“…Systematic differences between the participants emerged: While the performance of the sighted participants was unaffected by whether the two stimuli were presented from the same or different positions (replicating the results of several recent studies), the blind participants (regardless of the age of onset of blindness) were significantly more accurate when the auditory and tactile stimuli were presented from different positions rather than from the same position. …”

When visual transients impair tactile change detection: a novel case of crossmodal change blindness? by Gallace, A, Auvray, M, Tan, H, Spence, C

“…To date, however, only distractors presented within the same sensory modality as the change have been demonstrated to produce change blindness. In the present experiment, we studied whether tactile change blindness might also be elicited by the presentation of a visual mask. …”

When seeing doesn't matter: assessing the after-effects of tactile distractor processing in the blind and the sighted. by Frings, C, Amendt, A, Spence, C

“…Thus, we analyzed tactile NP in a sample of blind participants and in a control sample of sighted participants. …”

Grape expectations: how the proportion of white grape in Champagne affects the ratings of experts and social drinkers in a blind tasting by Harrar, V, Smith, B, Deroy, O, Spence, C

“…We, therefore, conducted a blind tasting experiment in which the participants had to report the perceived proportion of white grapes in a range of seven sparkling wines (including six Champagnes). …”

Spatial coordinate systems for tactile spatial attention depend on developmental vision: evidence from event-related potentials in sighted and congenitally blind adult humans. by Röder, B, Föcker, J, Hötting, K, Spence, C

“…By contrast, the congenitally blind group displayed an event-related potential attention negativity that did not vary when the posture of their hands was changed. …”

Lost in the move? Secondary task performance impairs tactile change detection on the body. by Gallace, A, Zeeden, S, Röder, B, Spence, C

“…Change blindness, the surprising inability of people to detect significant changes between consecutively-presented visual displays, has recently been shown to affect tactile perception as well. …”

Modality-specific auditory and visual temporal processing deficits. by Soto-Faraco, S, Spence, C

“…We studied the attentional blink (AB) and the repetition blindness (RB) effects using an audiovisual presentation procedure designed to overcome several potential methodological confounds in previous cross-modal research. …”

Tactile change detection by Gallace, A, Tan, H, Spence, C

“…This finding may reflect a tactile equivalent of the phenomenon of change blindness reported in previous visual studies. The implications of these finding for human tactile interface design are discussed.…”

The cognitive and neural correlates of "tactile consciousness": a multisensory perspective. by Gallace, A, Spence, C

“…We discuss the results of research that has investigated phenomena such as "change blindness", phantom limb sensations, and numerosity judgments in tactile perception, together with the results obtained from the study of patients affected by deficits that can adversely affect tactile perception such as neglect, extinction, and numbsense. …”

Implicit processing of tactile information: evidence from the tactile change detection paradigm. by Pritchett, D, Gallace, A, Spence, C

“…In Experiments 1 and 2, participants detected the presence of a change between two consecutively-presented tactile displays. Tactile change blindness was observed, with participants failing to report the presence of tactile change. …”
