Table 1

Participant characteristics.

	ASD (N = 15) Mean (SD)	Control (N = 15) Mean (SD)	t
Age	27.97 (10.88)	27.47 (8.60)	−0.14	0.89
Full scale IQ^a	118.3 (10.51)	117.31 (5.06)	−0.31	0.76
Verbal IQ^a	115.0 (15.89)	114.62 (5.42)	−0.08	0.94
Performance IQ^a	117.6 (7.15)	116.13 (5.08)	−0.59	0.56

Note. ; ^aASD Intelligence Quotient (IQ) scores were calculated based on the Wechsler Abbreviated Scale of Intelligence [39], and TDC IQ estimates were measured using the National Adult Reading Test-Revised (NART-R) [40]. IQ scores/estimates were missing for three TDC participants and one ASD participant.
