In the literature

Focusing on the quality of the options, there was neither a significant difference in the quality of the first choice between the groups, F (3, 69) = 0.74, p = 0.53, f = 0.18, 1−β = 0.21, nor in the quality of the final choice between the groups, F (3, 69) = 2.25, p = 0.09, f = 0.31, 1−β = 0.57, although in this latter case, the effect size was of moderate strength and the alpha value was approaching significance.
In all three analysis groups, there was a general trend that the proportion of the number of participants who drew in the Configurational style increased from Copy to IR condition, MD=0.15 in the ASD group, p<0.05; MD=0.18 in the sibling group, p<0.05; and MD=0.15 in the TD group, approaching significance (i.e., studentized range critical value=2.90).
It is also important to note that although some of the simple slopes noted above (see Figure 5 , Figure 6 and Figure 7 ) were not significant (and/or were approaching significance), these are likely due to the reduced power of the current sample to detect effects for these higher order interactions; future studies should attempt to see if these preliminary findings are replicated using a larger sample.
