Atypical Functional Connectivity of the Amygdala in Childhood Autism Spectrum Disorders during Spontaneous Attention to Eye-Gaze

Figure 2

Regions showing differences between left and right amygdala connectivity in control (CON) and ASD children during facilitation (Congruent > Neutral) and interference (Incongruent > Neutral). In control children, greater right than left amygdala was observed during facilitation (a) but greater left than right amygdala connectivity was observed during interference (c). ASD children showed greater right than left amygdala connectivity during both facilitation (b) and interference (d).
