Abstract

Thresholds for letters were measured with and without a masking stimulus before and after exposure of smokers and nonsmokers to carbon monoxide. Identification of the unmasked letters was not degraded by CO but a number of thresholds of the masked letters were significantly affected among the smokers. Results suggest that smokers are more susceptible than nonsmokers to short-term increases in the level of CO.
