“…More specifically, the pSTS is known to differ structurally between individuals with and without ASD [Boddaert & Zilbovicius, ; Boddaert, Chabane, Gervais, et al, ; Boddaert et al, ; Brunelle, Boddaert, & Zilbovicius, ; Levitt et al, ] in both gray matter volume [Boddaert, Chabane, Gervais, et al, ], gyrations [Levitt et al, ], and white matter connectivity [Boddaert, Chabane, Gervais, et al, ; Conturo et al, ; Lange et al, ; Lee et al, ]. Posterior STS also showed differential activation patterns with audiovisual speech stimuli and complex sounds in individuals with ASD relative to their TD peers [Boddaert & Zilbovicius, ; Brunelle et al, ; Boddaert et al, ; Boddaert, Chabane, Belin, et al, ; Pelphrey & Carter, ; Redcay & Courchesne, ; Zilbovicius et al, ; Zilbovicius, Meresse, & Boddaert, ; Zilbovicius, Meresse, Chabane, et al, ]. Finally, pSTS has been functionally linked to a wide array of other cognitive processes known to be impaired in ASD, including, but not limited to, processing of social stimuli, biological motion, face processing, and theory of mind [for review, see Hein & Knight, ].…”
