Fig. 2: Correlation between consecutive asynchronies (errors) is highest in the ASD group revealing reduced online error correction.

a–c Scatter plots showing correlations between consecutive asynchronies: a neurotypical (CON, control), b dyslexia (DYS), and c ASD. Individual asynchronies were plotted with respect to each participant’s mean asynchrony, yielding a mean of 0 ms. Consecutive asynchronies are positively correlated in all groups. This positive correlation is largest in the ASD group, reflecting reduced online error correction. Luminance scale is equal in (a–c): white, the maximum number of asynchronies in a bin, is 165 in all graphs. d Single participant correlations also show the impairment in error correction for the ASD group compared with the neurotypical and dyslexia groups. The median of each group is denoted as a line of the same color; error bars around this median denote an interquartile range. Kruskal–Wallis H-statistic and the corresponding p value are plotted in the bottom-left corner; p values of comparisons between groups are plotted next to the line connecting the groups’ medians. N = 109 subjects (NCON = 47, NDYS = 32, NASD = 30). Source data are provided as a Source Data file.
