The laboratory study of change blindness began in the 1970s within the context of eye movement research. George McConkie conducted the first studies on change blindness involving changes in words and texts; in these studies, the changes were introduced while the observer performed a saccadic eye movement. Observers often failed to notice these ...
Motion silencing stems from the study of change blindness which in essence is the failure to detect change in the visual field. [9] The phenomenon has been studied extensively, by means of such methods as flicker tasks, [10] forced saccade tasks, [11] mudsplashes, [12] disrupted and undisrupted scene transitions, [13] incremental scene rotation, [14] and videos.

The Invisible Gorilla is a book published in 2010, co-authored by Christopher Chabris and Daniel Simons.This title of this book refers to an earlier research project by Chabris and Simons revealing that people who are focused on one thing can easily overlook something else.
Saccadic masking, also known as (visual) saccadic suppression, is the phenomenon in visual perception where the brain selectively blocks visual processing during eye movements in such a way that neither the motion of the eye (and subsequent motion blur of the image) nor the gap in visual perception is noticeable to the viewer.
The following criteria are required to classify an event as an inattentional blindness episode: 1) the observer must fail to notice a visual object or event, 2) the object or event must be fully visible, 3) observers must be able to readily identify the object if they are consciously perceiving it, [3] and 4) the event must be unexpected and the failure to see the object or event must be due ...
Motion Induced Blindness (MIB), also known as Bonneh's illusion is a visual illusion in which a large, continuously moving pattern erases from perception some small, continuously presented, stationary dots when one looks steadily at the center of the display. It was discovered by Bonneh, Cooperman, and Sagi (2001), who used a swarm of blue dots ...
Two Indiana parents are in custody after allegedly leaving their 2-year-old daughter in a closet overnight with a space heater turned all the way up.
Simons is best known for his work on change blindness and inattentional blindness, two surprising examples of how people can be unaware of information right in front of their eyes. His research interests also include visual cognition, perception , memory , attention , and awareness .
