Detecting Faces: Limiting Access to Facial Information Using Either a Hijab or a Hat during a Virtual Change Blindness Task

Poster Session III - Research Proposal Posters

Keyword: Attention and Distraction

Abstract: In this study, we will use a virtual change-blindness task to investigate how limiting access to facial information, using either a hijab or a hat, affects our ability to detect change. We expect to find better change detection when facial features are obscured by hats as compared to hijabs.
