对感知和认知的研究表明，东亚人以整体的方式看待世界，关注整个领域和对象之间的关系，而西方人则以分析的方式看待世界，关注突出对象的属性。这些命题在变化盲视范式中进行了检验。在这种范式下的研究发现，美国参与者对焦点物体的变化比对周边或背景的变化更敏感。我们预计东亚人的情况不会如此，他们对环境的变化比美国人更敏感。我们向参与者展示了静态照片和焦点对象信息和上下文信息变化的动画小插曲。与美国人相比，东亚人对语境变化比焦点物体变化更敏感。这些结果表明，在似乎是基本的感知过程中可能存在文化差异。
Research on perception and cognition suggests that whereas East Asians view the world holistically, attending to the entire field and relations among objects, Westerners view the world analytically, focusing on the attributes of salient objects. These propositions were examined in the change-blindness paradigm. Research in that paradigm finds American participants to be more sensitive to changes in focal objects than to changes in the periphery or context. We anticipated that this would be less true for East Asians and that they Would be more sensitive to context changes than would Americans. We presented participants with still photos and with animated vignettes having changes in focal object information and contextual information. Compared to Americans, East Asians were more sensitive to contextual changes than to focal object changes. These results suggest that there can be cultural variation in what may seem to be basic perceptual processes.
