Memory consolidation across sleep and wake intervals for ASD and TD participants. Error bars represent standard error of means. A mixed effects model adjusting for age, nonverbal IQ, and sex revealed that participants' showed significantly less forgetting over periods of sleep than wake across groups (main effect for condition, P = 0.01). Participants with ASD demonstrated more forgetting across conditions than controls (main effect for group, P = 0.049). No group × condition interaction was detected. ASD, autism spectrum disorder; TD, typically developing.
