Fig. 4

Neural correlates of autism symptom severity on the contrast of social perception (BIO > SCR) in ASD. Autism symptom severity was based on Social Responsiveness Scale (SRS) total raw scores, while controlling for oppositional defiant disorder (ODD) scores. Left panel illustrates the brain regions showing significant correlates. Right panel is the scatterplot of autism symptom severity (x-axis) and the average activations to BIO > SCR in these social perception brain regions (y-axis; unit: percent signal change), with a regression line and the 95% confidence intervals. BIO, biological motion; SCR, scrambled motion; pSTS, posterior superior temporal sulcus; IFG, inferior frontal gyrus. ***p < 0.001
