Group comparison on modulation patterns. Sensory scores as a function of the modulation pattern of response (hyper-, hypo-responsiveness, and seeking) and group (ASD, 16p11.2 deletion carriers and TD). Boxplots represent the SPM raw scores adjusted for age and gender. The bold black line inside each boxplot shows the median, and the bottom and top of the box show the 25th (quartile 1 [Q1]) and the 75th (quartile 3 [Q3]) percentile, respectively. The upper whisker ends at highest observed data value within the span from Q3 to Q3 + 1.5 times the interquartile range (Q3–Q1), and lower whisker ends at lowest observed data value within the span for Q1 to Q1-(1.5 * interquartile range). Points not reached by the whiskers are outliers. Significant post hoc group differences are labeled with stars on the top of the figure (*p < 0.05, **p < 0.01 and ***p < 0.001 after Bonferroni correction)
