Figure 4. — Atypical intrinsic neural timescales and their associations with symptoms of ASD were investigated in a longitudinal fMRI dataset obtained from adolescent children (Supplementary Table 2 in Supplementary file 1) (Di Martino et al., 2014). (a) In adolescence, the intrinsic neural timescales in the bilateral postcentral gyri and right inferior occipital gyri (IOG) were consistently shorter in children with ASD. Each bold curve indicates the quadratic curve fitted to individual data points for each group. Each dotted line represents a longitudinal change in each participant. (b) The underdevelopment of the intrinsic timescale was correlated with progression of overall ASD symptoms. The changes in the intrinsic timescale and ADOS score were defined as subtraction of these indices at the first scan from those at the second scan. (c) The intrinsic neural timescale in the right caudate was consistently longer in ASD group during adolescence. (d) The overdevelopment of the intrinsic timescale was correlated with progression of RRB symptoms.
