The times required to detect a simple display were measured following exposure to eight high-intensity, short-duration adapting flash areas presented in eighteen retinal locations. Variations in both the adapting flash area and retinal location produced variations in the time required to respond to the display. The response times for the various experimental conditions indicate that intraocular effects operate in flashblindness, with the effect of producing small but consistent increases in foveal response times following extrafoveal stimulation by an adapting flash.
