Why do we become deaf while doing a task?


  Have you ever noticed that some people ignore you when they are doing a visual task like reading a book or playing a video game. Even if you shout at them, they won't listen. But why does this happen?

  People don't ignore you. They become temporarily deaf when they do a visual task. The reason behind this is 'inattentional deafness'. This means that when people perform certain tasks, and they involve so much in that task with increased focus and concentration, they become deaf. This means that sounds from the outside don't affect them.

  So this is a scientific reason of inattentional deafness.
