Correlation Matrix of Psychometric Scores and Age with Lac+ Concentration and fractional Voxel Volumes. This matrix shows the correlations among psychometric scores and age with Lac+ concentration and GM/WM/CSF voxel volume fractions in the posterior cingulate cortex for the ASD group (upper graph) and both groups combined (lower graph). Circle size and color indicate the strength of the correlation (“R”). Notations: SRS-2 = Social Responsiveness Scale, AQ = Autism Spectrum Quotient, EQ = Empathy Quotient, BDI-II = Beck Depression Inventory, WURS-k = Wender Utah Rating Scale, STAI = State Anxiety Inventory, GM = Gray Matter, WM = White Matter, CSF = Cerebrospinal Fluid. Significance levels: *p < 0.05, **p < 0.01, ***p < 0.001
