Abstract
Few studies have investigated individual differences in susceptibility to inattentional blindness, a phenomenon where people fail to notice fully visible but unexpected objects when they are engaged in an attention-demanding task. In the present study, we explored whether different dimensions of psychopathology (i.e., anxious arousal, worry, and depression), trait affect, and perceived control of cognition and emotion predicted noticing of an unexpected, non-emotional object. Results indicated that none of the measures included predicted noticing. Implications and suggestions for future research are discussed.
