(a) Regression models with SRTST50, SRTF50, and SRTF84 as dependent variables, and both TRT and the cognitive capacity measures as independent variables. (b) Regression models with PPDs in the four conditions as dependent variables, and both TRT and the cognitive capacity measures as independent variables. Shown are the unstandardized regression coefficients (B) and the variance ( ) for all associations. The P values of significant associations ( ) are presented in bold. In none of the analyses PTA appeared to be a significant confounder. We adjusted for age (*) in the models in which age was a significant confounder.
