Table 3.
Characterization of the replication cohort. Means are reported for each item in the table with standard deviations in parentheses, unless otherwise indicated. TD and ASD groups were matched on overall cognitive ability as measured by the DAS-II Global Composite Ability (DAS-II GCA) and chronological age. Autism Diagnostic Observation Schedule (ADOS; Lord et al., 2000) scores, using the ADOS Algorithm for DSM-IV/ICD-10 Autism Diagnosis, are reported for the RRB (Restricted and Repetitive Behaviors) and SA (Social Affect) subscales, as well as the total score for all participants who received Module 3 (n = 10).
