In addition to change blindness induced by changes in visual images, change blindness also exists for the other senses:

  • Change deafness – change blindness for auditory information.[40] In his experiment, Michael S. Vitevitch used a Speech shadowing task to demonstrate change deafness. He presented a list of words to participants and had them simultaneously repeat the words they heard. Halfway through the list, either the same or a different speaker presented the second half of the words to participants. At least 40% of particpants failed to detect the change in speaker when it occured.[1] Fenn et al called participants on the phone and replaced the speaker in the middle of the conversation. Participants rarely noticed change. However, when explicitly monitoring for change, the participants' detection increased.[2]
  • Olfactory – Humans are constantly in a state of change blindness due to the poor spatial and temporal resolutions with which scents are detected.[41] Although, humans' odor detection thresholds are very low, our olfactory attention is only captured by unusually high odorant concentrations. Olfactory input is made up of a series of sniffs separated in time. The long inter-sniff-interval creates "change anosmia," in which humans have trouble discerning smells that are not highly concentrated.[3]
  • Somatosensory – change blindness for tactile stimuli has been observed using the mudsplash paradigm for change blindness.[42] Auvray et. al did an experiment on the ability to detect change between two patterns of tactile stimuli presented to fingertips. The experiments presented consective patterns which were seprated by an empty interval, or by a tactile, visual, or auditory mask. Results showed that performance was impaired when the empty interval was inserted, and even more so when tactile mask was introduced. [4]
