The participants' failure to notice a change in the interviewer's gender best illustrates change blindness, which refers to the failure to detect changes in visual stimuli when they occur during brief interruptions in the visual field or attention.

The cocktail party effect refers to the ability to focus one's auditory attention on a particular stimulus even while filtering out a range of other stimuli (like a person's name being heard in a noisy room). The popout phenomenon refers to the rapid and effortless identification of a target stimulus that is distinct from the surrounding stimuli in a visual display. Blindsight refers to the residual ability to detect visual stimuli despite damage to the primary visual cortex, often demonstrated by a person's ability to correctly guess the location or movement of objects they cannot consciously see.
