Figures & data

Table 1. Variables included in the model and operationalization of each measure. LogMAR = acuity score for the better eye the visual acuity score (VAS) inverts the LogMAR scale such that a score of 100 represents a logMAR score of 0 or 20/20 vision and lower scores indicate poorer vision, 2B0F = accuracy for judging 2 Beeps presented with no Flashes with 70 ms SOA, 0B2F = accuracy for judging 2 Flashes presented with no Beeps with 70 ms SOA 1B1F = accuracy for judging 1 Flash presented with 1 Beep. SOA = Stimulus Onset Asynchrony, MoCA = Montreal Cognitive Assessment, NART = National Adult Reading Test, TIA = Transient Ischemic Attack

Table 2. Demographic information for participants reporting childhood and current urban/rural residence. Categorical variables are shown as count (%). MoCA = Montreal Cognitive Assessment, NART = National Adult Reading Test, VAS = Visual Acuity Score

Figure 1. Sampling selection procedure. MoCA = Montreal Cognitive Assessment, NART = National Adult Reading Test.

Figure 1. Sampling selection procedure. MoCA = Montreal Cognitive Assessment, NART = National Adult Reading Test.

Figure 2. A) Odds ratio for making a correct response on illusory 2B1F trials (i.e. a “one flash” response) based on predictors included for models 1, 3 and 4. For complete results see Supplementary Table S1. Lower panels show the predicted probability of accuracy at each SOA for participants grouped on childhood residence at around age 14 years (panel b) and current residence (panel c). 95% confidence intervals are shown. SOA = Stimulus Onset Asynchrony, MoCA = Montreal Cognitive Assessment, Curr. = Current.

Data availability

TILDA has a public database that includes unisensory and cognitive measures included in the current analysis available at https://tilda.tcd.ie/data/accessing-data/a list of studies using data from this database can be found at https://tilda.tcd.ie/publications/papers/. The SIFI data is planned to be included in future releases of the TILDA dataset, subject to General Data Protection Regulation.
