Tactile reactivity in NT and autistic children. a Scores on the CSP-2 tactile domain are shown for NT (blue) and autistic (wine red) children, showing greater overall tactile reactivity in autism. Light grey shading indicates ‘probable sensory differences’ and dark grey shading ‘definite sensory differences’. b Tactile hyper- and hypo-reactivity are shown for each group, with each of these behavioral profiles being the sum of different CSP-2 quadrants within the tactile domain. c Association between tactile hyper- and hypo-reactivity shown for each group (NT: r = 0.34, p = 0.028; AS: r = 0.21, p = 0.281). Dots represent individual participants (a, b, c) and black bars represent mean ± SD across participants (a, b). Shading indicates the 95% confidence interval on the partial correlations. Statistical group difference: ***p < 0.001
