面对无法注意到视觉场景的巨大变化（变化盲视）的令人惊讶的情况，许多研究人员寻找替代的、非注意的变化检测途径的证据。 《心理科学》最近的一篇文章（Rensink，2004）提出了一种新的、非感官的“心灵视觉”机制来解释这一发现，即一些试验中的一些受试者报告在能够明确识别变化之前就感觉到了反复出现的变化的存在，并且没有对变化的本地化视觉体验。这种机制将构成一种以前未知的观看模式，正如伦辛克所说，可能类似于第六感。它的存在将对有意识视觉体验的机制产生根本性的影响。挑衅性的主张值得严格遵守。我们通过支持一种更世俗的解释来反驳心智机制的存在：有些受试者需要时间来验证他们最初有意识地发现变化。
Faced with the surprising failure to notice large changes to visual scenes (change blindness), many researchers have sought evidence for alternative, nonattentional routes to change detection. A recent article in Psychological Science (Rensink, 2004) proposed a new, nonsensory "mindsight'' mechanism to explain the finding that some subjects on some trials reported sensing the presence of a recurring change before they could explicitly identify it and without having a localizable visual experience of change. This mechanism would constitute a previously unknown mode of seeing that, as Rensink suggested, might be akin to a sixth sense. Its existence would have radical implications for the mechanisms underlying conscious visual experience. Provocative claims merit rigorous scrutiny. We rebut the existence of a mindsight mechanism by supporting a more mundane explanation: Some subjects take time to verify their initial conscious detection of changes.
