r dinner. This is a real-world example of?a. the late-selection model of attentionb. an object-based attentional failurec. inattentional blindnessd. the cocktail party phenomenon.
Different types of visual awareness are repetition blindness, visual making and change blindness. The inattentional blindness is quite distinct from the other visual awareness.
Inattentional blindness may be defined as the process of the failure without notice the fully and clearly visible but the unexpected object. This might occur because the individual is involved in other task. Lan has paid no attention on reading beacuse she was involved in other task clearly indicates the inattentional blindness.
Inattentional blindness term was coined by Arien Mack and Irvin Rock to refer a phenomenon in which the person misses something in their visual eyes due to the attention on some another task, object or event.
In the given question since the Lan was focussing on how hungry she was at the time of while she was reading some text therefore this is considered the example of the Inattentional blindness phenomenon.
Thus, Inattentional blindness is the correct answer.
