The original version of this article unfortunately contained mistakes inserted by the journal after proofing. There was an error in the last column of Table 1. Table 1 reported the Greek letter beta instead of eta.

N: number of subjects with available scores; s.d.: standard deviation; p-value of the one-way ANOVA with outcome groups as between-subjects factor, for age, MSEL and VABS scores, and Kruskal–Wallis non-parametric test for ADOS scores;

${\mathbf{\eta }}_{\mathit{p}}^2$: partial eta-squared as a measure of the effect size.

^a,b,c Superscript letters denote that groups are significantly different from each other based on Tukey’s Honest Significant Difference post-hoc analyses with 95% family-wise confidence level for age, MSEL and VABS scores, and based on pairwise comparisons using Mann–Whitney U test with Bonferroni correction for multiple comparisons for ADOS-2 CSS.

*p < 0.05.

In addition, there were errors in the figure legends of figures 3 and 4. Figure 3 should read: Mean Nc features by group and stimulus. Mean amplitude (A) and peak latency (B) of the Nc by stimulus and ASD liability groups, averaged across the frontal regions. All error bars represent ±1 standard error. Figure 4 should read: Relationship between Nc features and later dimensional variation in social adaptive skills. Mean amplitude (A) and peak latency (B) difference between face with direct gaze and Noise at 8 months, on the x-axis. Translational Psychiatry apologizes for the errors. The original article has been corrected.
