Parameter Estimates of Level and Change in Individual Tests of Cognition, by Frequency of Arts Attendance.

	Perceptual speed	Episodic memory	MMSE
Baseline	Coefficient (SE)	Coefficient (SE)	Coefficient (SE)
Baseline
Average level (Never)	0.516 (0.036)^**	0.324 (0.038)^**	0.258 (0.031)^**
Change in level (<10 per year)	0.015 (0.024)	0.050 (0.025)^*	0.065 (0.020)^**
Change in level (≥10 per year)	0.067 (0.026)^*	0.016 (0.028)	0.027 (0.022)
Follow-up
Annual CD (Never)	0.069 (0.003)^**	0.047 (0.003)^**	0.081 (0.004)^**
Change in CD (<10 per year)	0.008 (0.003)^*	0.011 (0.005)^*	0.016 (0.005)^*
Change in CD (≥10 per year)	0.007 (0.003)^*	0.017 (0.005)^*	0.032 (0.004)^**

Note. Parameter estimates adjusted for age, sex, education, physical function, social engagement, and depressive symptoms. CD = cognitive decline. MMSE=mini-mental state examination.
