Values expressed as Mean (SEM). IQ data are as measured by the Developmental Abilities Scale (DAS). Abbreviations: Autism Diagnostic Interview-Revised (ADI-R), Autism Diagnostic Observation Schedule (ADOS), Social Responsiveness Scale (SRS). *One ASD participant score did not meet ASD cutoff; diagnosis was confirmed via ADI-R and expert clinical judgment. **ASD > TD, p < .0001.
