Recommended: Literature review change blindness

In chapter 4, the topic of discussion centered around a concept called bonded awareness. The main theme in the chapter was that we choose to ignore certain things, or become complacent and ignore those things just as much. We tend to ignore the obvious, and think what we want to think about a certain situation. We must examine all the details of a problem or situation, and come to a conclusion that meets our requirements. Bounded awareness takes on many forms, and will affect our judgment or decisions about important items. A few of the forms are Intentional blindness, Change blindness, and focalism and the focusing illusion. Intentional blindness is our inability to notice certain obvious things about a situation. When we are told to

  • Consciousness: Are We All In This Together?

    A question that continues to puzzle scholars (and Honors students, alike) is that of what defines human consciousness. It would be simple to say that it is defined by one’s awareness of itself and of its surroundings. What makes the question so difficult to answer, though, is that consciousness is much more than an acute awareness; it is the process of becoming aware, finding the purpose of our consciousness, and building morals and intelligence from that awareness that entangles those who search for answers in a web of utter confusion.

  • The Heart of Understanding, by Thich Nhat Hanh

    From the non-duality and interbeing view, one should see that full understanding is constituted of “non-understanding elements.” Understanding cannot exisits alone. Understanding and non-understanding are interbeing and the two are equal. Understanding cannot be created or destroyed. Finally, the “heart” of understanding is emptiness, and emptiness is understanding.

  • The Importance Of Change Blindness

    950 Words  | 2 Pages

    Our attention is very selective when it comes to getting information from our environment. We could be looking at everything within our environment and miss changes that occur while looking. According to Rensink, O’Regan and Clark (1997), attention is a key factor, meaning when our attention is focused on the area of change then change can be detected. When we fail to detect change, it can result in change blindness. In support of this idea, Simons and Levin (1998) suggest that change blindness occurs if there is a lack of “precise” visual representation of their surroundings. In other words, a person can be looking at an object and not fully notice a change.

    Blindness is a state or condition of being unable to see because of injury, disease, or a congenital condition. In some cases, it is a lack of perception, awareness or judgement. Blind can also be a word to describe ignorance. We are all blind to the world around us. I have learned that it will take time for the film to shy away from our eyes and show us the agony of reality.

  • The Relationship Between Self and World

    1593 Words  | 4 Pages

    According to the Central Argument the relationship between consciousness and self bears the same structure as that between consciousness and world. The self and the world are thus linked together as “two objects for the absolute, impersonal consciousness” (Ibid, 57). As a philosophy of human experience7, this account of the relationship between self and world seems to leave out too many aspects of our actual experience to provide a satisfying theory. As we look at the counterexamples above – the reading example and the up-bringing example – it seems quite clear that consciousness is not a function disconnected from the rest of the person; and that the complexity of the human person cannot be reduced to the relation ‘consciousness of the self’. Rather than thus simplifying the interplay between consciousness, self and world into an intelligible geometric structure (Bachelard [1958] 1994, 215), let us have a look at an example which may further blur those distinctions.

It is actively engaged in the material this can lead to deep
