Linear mixed model results for antisaccade directional error rate (DER), prosaccade latency (Pro), correct antisaccade latency (CorAS) and error prosaccade latency from the antisaccade task (ErrPS). Values for each term included in the model and their significance. The estimated regression coefficients, their standard errors (in round brackets), the 95% confidence intervals (in square brackets) and the p-values are reported.

aThe Age predictor is centred at age 132 months so that the 0 reflects the grand mean for a participant of 132 months old.
