Notes.

^a,

Ethnicity was asked separate from race, so total does not add to 100%.

^b,

Autism traits were classified using the Social Responsiveness Scale (1^st or 2^nd edition).^34-35

^c,

Cognitive estimate was derived using the Wechlser Abbreviated Scale of Intelligence (2nd edition);³⁶ the total N = 35 for cognitive estimate, as we did not collect it in all of the studies from which we drew data.
