  1. Original normative data from White et al.40 is included for comparison, but we suggest that researchers adopt normative scores from the Prolific sample, given the relative demographic heterogeneity and high task engagement we observed in this cohort (see main text in this and next sections). See Table S1 in Supplementary Material for test scores separated by match and non-match trials.
