Neural Heterogeneity Underlying Behavioral Equivalence: A Dynamic Neuro‐Decoding Study of Cognitive and Affective Empathy in Relation to Autism‐Like Traits
These findings reveal a pattern of "behavioral equivalence, neural heterogeneity." High-ALT individuals appear to employ distinct, compensatory neural strategies to achieve typical behavioral outcomes in empathy. This highlights the value of advanced neuro-decoding in uncovering latent processing differences underlying the ALT spectrum.
