a weak trendp = 0.158
A weak trend towards association was seen between autistic trait score and FA (Pearson's coefficient 0.358, p = 0.158) and autistic trait score and MD (Pearson's coefficient −0.401, p = 0.111) in the right corticospinal tract.
A weak trend towards association was seen between autistic trait score and FA (Pearson's coefficient 0.358, p = 0.158) and autistic trait score and MD (Pearson's coefficient −0.401, p = 0.111) in the right corticospinal tract.
It is worth noting that associations between autistic traits and microstructure in the right corticospinal tract in its entirety did not reach statistical significance and it was only when the tract was segmented into superior and inferior that the significant effect was located in the inferior region, analogous to the TBSS results.
