Fig. 3: Relationship between AASP scores and limbic volume in the ASD group.

A Significant correlation between taste/smell sensation avoiding scores and the right hippocampal volume in the ASD group (TD: p = 0.078, r = −0.197; ASD: p < 0.001, r = −0.510). B Significant correlation between taste/smell sensation avoiding scores and the left hippocampal volume in the ASD group (TD: p = 0.027, r = −0.246; ASD: p < 0.001, r = −0.540). AASP Adolescent/Adult Sensory Profile, ASD autism spectrum disorder, TD typically developing.
