Invisibility or Blindness? On Attention, the Unseen, and the Seen
Both not seeing what is perfectly visible and seeing something other than what is there are surprisingly common occurrences in our normal perceptual lives. One is a case of phenomenal invisibility, while the other is a case of misperception. When we do not see what is there or see something other than what is there, it is frequently the result of the same visual processes that are responsible for our seeing what is there. These phenomena are disc…

Iconic memory is not a case of attention-free awareness
Reply to Bachmann and Aru
Iconic memory for the gist of natural scenes
The Image: Seeing More and Seeing Less Than Is There
Most of us generally assume, without much reflection, that our visual experience is a faithful representation of the scenes at which we are looking, and that our eyes function much like a camera, sending images of those scenes to our brain, which receives them and produces our perceptual experience. But this, as it turns out, is a mistaken assumption. Some of the reasons why are discussed

What we see: Inattention and the capture of attention by meaning
Inattentional Blindness
Arien Mack and Irvin Rock make the radical claim that there is no conscious perception of the visual world without attention to it. Many people believe that merely by opening their eyes, they see everything in their field of view; in fact, a line of psychological research has been taken as evidence of the existence of so-called preattentional perception. In Inattentional Blindness, Arien Mack and Irvin Rock make the radical claim that there is no…
