Description of each pupillary variable calculated
| Variable Name (units) | Definition |
|---|---|
| Baseline Pupil Diameter (pixels) | Median pupil diameter in the 30 s preceding light onset |
| Phasic Constriction (% from baseline) | Median % constriction between 300–700 ms after light onset |
| Constriction Latency (s) | Time required after light onset for the pupil to reach 10% of constriction |
| Maximum Pupil Constriction (% from baseline) | |
| Sustained Slope (%/s) | Slope of best fit linear regression from 3–10 s after light onset |
| Post-Illumination Pupil Response (PIPR, % from baseline) | Median percent constriction between 5 to 7 s after light offset |
| Area Under the Curve (AUC, %.s) | Absolute value of a trapezoidal numerical integral of the data between light offset and 12 s after light offset |
