Blindsight, blandsight, and blingsight: unconscious perception, attention, and the epistemology of perception.
There is a debate about whether attention is necessary for your conscious perceptual experiences to justify your beliefs about the external world. This debate has tended to be silent about what unconscious perception might do for our beliefs about the external world. There is also a debate about whe...

This debate has tended to be silent about what unconscious perception might do for our beliefs about the external world. There is also a debate about whether consciousness is necessary for your perception to justify beliefs about the external world. This debate has tended to be silent about what role attention might play in relation to unconscious perception.

I then argue that unconscious perception can both occur without attention and justify our beliefs in such cases. pubtype: Academic Journal doctype: Literature Review src: R language: English refInfo: copyright: @attributes: flag: Y custom: Synthese is a copyright of Springer, 2025.
