A new episode with Prof. Benjamin Balas is out! 🧠 We explore the science behind chess blunders and the role of visual cognition. Prof. Balas, a visual cognition expert, explains how our visual system impacts chess decision-making, from issues like visual crowding to peripheral vision—common sources of mistakes, especially for beginners. He shares practical blunder-checking tips and insights from research on novice vs. expert players. Thank you, @bjbalas, for the invaluable insights!
