Inattentional blindness , also known as
perceptual blindness , is when a person fails to notice some stimulus
that is in plain sight. This stimulus is usually unexpected but fully
visible. This typically happens because humans are overloaded with
inputs. It is impossible to pay attention to every single input that is
presented. A person’s attention cannot be focused on everything, and
therefore, everyone experiences inattentional blindness. People can
falsely believe that they do not experience inattentional blindness.
This is due to the fact that they are unaware that they are missing
things. Inattentional blindness also has an effect on people’s
perception. There have been multiple experiments performed that
demonstrate this phenomenon
