Examples of event data showing gaze (blue lines) and eccentricities of the critical pedestrian (black lines) and extent of the cross-traffic (green lines). In each example, an individual with left HVFL (gray area) has triggered the critical pedestrian. The pedestrian eccentricity prior to appearing is represented as a gray line. That location is visible in a seeing part (white area) of the visual field before and after the appearance in the left and middle panels, but not in the right panel. In the first example (left), representing Condition B, the individual looks at the cross-traffic, triggering the pedestrian far from the crosswalk to disappear and the appearance of the critical pedestrian near the crosswalk. The participant indicates that they detected the pedestrian appear (red dotted line). In the second example (middle), representing Condition A, the pedestrian is triggered, but there is no detection following sight of the pedestrian, and thus, this event was considered change blindness. In the last example (right), representing Condition A, the location of the pedestrian prior to the change was never visible. So, even though they triggered the pedestrian and failed to detect the change, this was not considered change blindness and was omitted from analyses
