Summary of the social questionnaires results for both groups (Xmat, Xmat). Significance levels for each comparison are shown (P values). For the SRS, P values indicate the significance of the model for the univariate ANCOVA using age as covariate. The last two columns show P values for univariate models (ANCOVA) using FSIQ as covariate (both age and FSIQ for SRS). When the overall model's P value is <0.05, significance of the X-origin factor is indicated. Significance threshold was established using Bonferroni corrections (α = 0.002).
