ADOS-T score indicates social behavior deficits, measured by the Autism Diagnostic Observation Schedule total score. PANSS-T score indicates the overall severity measured by the Positive and Negative Syndrome Scale. PANSS subscales indicate positive and negative symptoms, and general psychopathology. Head motion represents mean framewise displacement.
N.A. indicated non-applicable tests: For the HC group PANSS evaluations were non-applicable; for non-significant group-comparisons post-hoc tests were non-applicable.
⁎
Asterisks Indicate significant results for post-hoc tests (p < .05).
