The original version of this article unfortunately contained a mistake in CI values in Table 2.

For Looking preference (ratio), the 90% CI of estimate should be with a minus sign − 0.15, − 0.03.

For Human activity preference (ratio), the 90% CI of estimate should be with a minus sign − 0.30, − 0.08.

The correct Table 2 is given below.

Estimate refers to estimated mean differences between ASD and HC derived from an analysis of Covariance model

P values less than 0.00094 are considered statistically significant after multiplicity adjustment

^aCategories in each task (e.g. Activity, Background) refers to the time spent looking at this aspect of the visual scene in relation to the overall looking time
