Table 4.

Simple and multiple linear regression analyses assessing which demographics, clinical, and behavioural features were associated with the discrepancy between objective and subjective cognitive functioning (MoCA Z scores minus PD-CFRS Z scores) in overall sample; 95% bias corrected and accelerated confidence intervals [95% CI] (1000 bootstrap samples) for the linear regression coefficients were reported in parentheses
