o What is change blindness? How is this research
conducted?
We experience a rich, detailed visual world that seems to
be stable from one moment to the next.
However, we are viewing the world in brief glances, as
we move our eyes (saccades) three or four times a
second
In addition, our vision is not particularly clear outside of
our fovea (central vision)
It appears to us that we must retain a lot of information
from one view of a scene to the next.
However, there is research that suggests that, in fact, we
retain very little of the scene from one view to the next.
Implications:
• Relatively little information is preserved from one view to
another
