(A) Whole brain activations related to empathetic pain. Both ASD and HC groups showed activation in anterior insular cortex (AIC), extrastriate body area (EBA), and lateral prefrontal cortex (LPFC). Adults with ASD showed greater activation in AIC and EBA, and less activation in LPFC compared to HC (see Table III). (B) Whole brain activation related to SCR. Compared to HC, ASD individuals showed greater activation in the AIC and several other brain regions (see Table IV). ASD, autism spectrum disorder; HC, healthy control (P < 0.05 uncorrected and k > 120, equivalent to P < 0.05 corrected for multiple comparisons).
