What do the inattentionally blind see? In by far the largest empirical project I've been involved in, @NartkerMakaela finds striking sensitivity to the colour, shape + location of "unseen" stimuli, as well as substantial bias not to report it. Check her pre-print out below 👇👀🦍

Started reading my (free PDF!) of Nick Shea's Concepts at the Interface this morning. Already evident how deeply informed & deeply thought out a book it is -- philosophical cognitive science at its v best. Want to think about thinking? Download it here: global.oup.com/academic/prod…

Sensitivity to visual features in inattentional blindness biorxiv.org/content/10.1101/… by @chazfirestone @ibphillips et al.; "the strongest evidence to date of significant residual visual sensitivity in IB, and even cast doubt on claims that awareness requires attention"

Sensitivity to visual features in inattentional blindness

The relation between attention, perception and awareness is among the most fundamental problems in the science of the mind. One of the most striking and well-known phenomena bearing on this question...

How good are we at knowing what we would think and do if our beliefs were different? In a new preprint with @chazfirestone and @ibphillips, we use pretense behavior to show that the answer is *remarkably good* osf.io/preprints/psyarxiv/pg… A thread 🧵(1/7)

What do illusions tell us about silence? In the latest podcast, Ian Phillips, Rui Zhe Goh, and Chaz Firestone of @JohnsHopkins explored whether we perceive silence or simply infer it when there is a lack of sound. Listen now: ow.ly/3Wrn50PFFcC
