    Change blindness is a phenomenon in attention where drastic changes to a scene can go unnoticed. This is important to the field of Human Sensation and Perception because it helps illustrate how a visual scene is processed. Specifically it shows how even if there is direct attention to a scene, there are times when drastic changes can occur without perception of the change occurring. With extensive research already conducted illustrating this effect, new research has recently been conducted studying

Pain is a protective mechanism essential to survival

    of visual contents is a vital function of human brain (Chao et al., 1999). It is demonstrated that widely-distributed neural networks are engaged in the distinction of semantic categories, such as the ventral temporal cortex, which plays a significant role in face and object recognition (Chao et al., 1999; Haxby et al., 2000; Haxby et al., 2001; O'toole et al., 2005). Accumulating evidence has suggested that differential neural response patterns in human brain are closely associated with specific
