ASD: participants with a diagnosis of ASD tested in the laboratory. CTL: controls tested in the laboratory, matched to the ASD group. Participants from the general population were tested on an online version of the stereotype IATs (MTurkStereo) or the evaluative IATs (MTurkEval). ADOS = Autism Diagnostic Observation Schedule. ADOS-A= Communication score; ADOS B=Reciprocal Social Interaction score; ADOS A+B=Communication + Social scores. Higher scores on the ADOS, AQ, and BAPQ indicate greater impairment. For the ADOS, values in parentheses indicate cut-off values for diagnosing Autism/ASD.
