Change Blindness

[Beforeyouandme]

I've done the same thing to a girl riding her doggy style. Switched with my mate and she never noticed.

I wonder if more women noticed the change than men...

It's a wonder how easily mislead we can be, visually. In a way, we're like sheep. But I guess that's just another part of our many genetic faults - which may ironically be useful in the species's survival.

I would want to abuse this,in a test .etc

i think its probably just coincidence who notices. most people will not care who is giving them the form and they have other things on their mind. whereas some people might find the guy attractive or like his shirt or just have nothing on their mind so are more observational that day and will notice when he changes.

Irony? here in Mexico our educational system is regulated by the SEP...

It could be a brain disorder. I have dyslexia and I look around constantly to take in as much as I can of my surroundings.

the women that noticed are the ones that thought the first or second guy was cute.

it is the noisy when the man moving away make alert the those who detected the change!

@LaurynTheBieberLover Simons et.al. did this research, see also Inattentional Blindness (referred to by Simons as "The Monkey Business experiment" :)
