Скачать или смотреть Are We Really Good at Noticing? 👀🦍

Ever heard of the Invisible Gorilla experiment? 🏀🦍 It shows just how unreliable our observation can be…
🔎 The Experiments
• In a famous study, people counted basketball passes. A person in a gorilla suit walked through the scene. 🦍
• 50% of people didn’t notice! When replayed, many were in disbelief.
• A follow-up study added more changes (curtain color, a player leaving) and still, most people only noticed the gorilla.
🧠 Why This Happens
• Our brains focus on one task at a time, often missing unexpected details.
• Words influence perception too: hearing “hit” vs. “smashed” changes how we remember a car accident. 🚗💥
⚖️ The Bigger Lesson
• Eyewitness testimony? Not as reliable as we think.
• Memory stores the gist of an event, not every detail. When recalling, our brains often fill in gaps—sometimes inaccurately.
🌍 BrainWise Takeaway
We aren’t natural observers. Our focus is powerful, but also limiting. So:
• Stay humble about what you “saw” 👁️
• Question your assumptions 🔄
• And remember—our brains are storytellers, not perfect recorders.
