Figure 3.

Upper graphs correspond to one subject (ASD) performing the auditory attention task, illustrating that the tail power law characteristics disappear during the attend condition. The inset on the right-hand side graph is the log-linear plot, suggesting that the edf has more pronounced exponential characteristics rather than power law features. Lower plots are from another subject (non-ASD) showing the presence of outliers in both conditions of the auditory task, but more numerous in the “attend” condition (circled). As in Figure 2B; the middle part (70–40%) of the edf in the “Attend” condition could be fit to a power law with exponent 3.4.
