What are change blindness and inattentional blindness?
What will be an ideal response?
Evolutionarily, our ability to spot predators as well as to detect food sources has been a great advantage for our survival. Adaptive behavior requires us to be attentive to changes in our environment because changes cue us to both opportunities and dangers. It thus may be surprising to discover that people can show remarkable levels of change blindness, that is, an inability to detect changes in objects or scenes that are being viewed. Closely related to change blindness is inattentional blindness, which is a phenomenon in which people are not able to see things that are actually there
