  1. Mean values were calculated for cognitively able autistic and neurotypical (NT) adults separately (standard error in brackets). Values of peak amplitude are in μV, whereas peak latencies are in ms. The frontal ROI included the following electrode sites: Fp1, Fp2, F3, F4, F7, F8, and Fz. The occipital ROI included the following electrode sites: O1, O2, Oz, PO7, PO8, and POz. In the animal task, we compared animal and no-animal images; in the food task, we compared food and no-food images
