However, little is known if and how ASD specific behavioral interventions may affect neural processing in ASD. The aim of the current study was to investigate for the first time, whether the group\u2010based social skills training SOSTA\u2010FRA would elicit changes in neurophysiological correlates of social perception in high\u2010functioning ASD individuals aged 8\u201317 years. Event\u2010related potentials (ERPs) of a facial emotion recognition (FER) and a biological motion perception task were examined. ERPs were compared between a randomized intervention and a treatment as usual group at three time points (baseline, post\u2010intervention, and at 3 months follow\u2010up). A reduction of P100 amplitude in the right hemisphere and a trend toward reduced N200 latency in the biological motion task were found after the training only in the intervention group, whereas behavioral performance remained stable. Change in N200 latencies and parent\u2010rated social responsiveness showed small but statistically nonsignificant correlations. No changes were observed regarding FER. Results indicate that the intervention changed neural correlates of social perception in ASD. Especially neural correlates of biological motion perception, which is an important prerequisite for successful social interaction, were sensitive to change. ERPs of social perception tasks that are impaired in ASD can well be used to objectively measure neural processing improvement by behavioral intervention. <jats:bold><jats:italic>Autism Res<\/jats:italic><\/jats:bold> <jats:italic>2018, 11: 1376\u20131387<\/jats:italic>. \u00a9 2018 International Society for Autism Research, Wiley Periodicals, Inc.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Lay Summary<\/jats:title><jats:p>It is well known that people with autism spectrum disorder (ASD) process social information differently than other people and that these differences can also be seen in their brain activity. We also know that behavioral therapies, such as group\u2010based social skills trainings can help people with ASD improve their behavior. But it is unclear how therapy changes social processing in the brain. The aim of our study was therefore to examine how neural processing of social stimuli changed after behavioral intervention. Comparing a group of children and adolescents that received the group\u2010based social skills training SOSTA\u2010FRA to a control group we found that the neural processing of human motion became faster and involved less brain resources after the intervention, while behavioral performance remained stable. No changes were seen for the processing of emotional facial expressions. We recommend that future studies should also analyze changes in brain function as well as behavioral changes as a secondary therapy outcome parameter.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec>","DOI":"10.1002\/aur.2013","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2018,10,16]],"date-time":"2018-10-16T06:04:27Z","timestamp":1539669867000},"page":"1376-1387","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1002\/crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":8,"title":["Facilitation of biological motion processing by group\u2010based autism specific social skills training"],"prefix":"10.1002","volume":"11","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-5259-7174","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Christina","family":"Luckhardt","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Child and Adolescent Psychiatry, Psychosomatics and Psychotherapy, Autism Research and Intervention Center of Excellence University Hospital Frankfurt, Goethe University  Frankfurt am Main Germany"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Anne","family":"Kr\u00f6ger","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Child and Adolescent Psychiatry, Psychosomatics and Psychotherapy, Autism Research and Intervention Center of Excellence University Hospital Frankfurt, Goethe University  Frankfurt am Main Germany"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Leyla","family":"Elsuni","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Child and Adolescent Psychiatry, Psychosomatics and Psychotherapy, Autism Research and Intervention Center of Excellence University Hospital Frankfurt, Goethe University  Frankfurt am Main Germany"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Hannah","family":"Cholemkery","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Child and Adolescent Psychiatry, Psychosomatics and Psychotherapy, Autism Research and Intervention Center of Excellence University Hospital Frankfurt, Goethe University  Frankfurt am Main Germany"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Stephan","family":"Bender","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Child and Adolescent Psychiatry, Psychosomatics and Psychotherapy, Autism Research and Intervention Center of Excellence University Hospital Frankfurt, Goethe University  Frankfurt am Main Germany"},{"name":"Department of Child and Adolescent Psychiatry, Psychosomatics and Psychotherapy Medical Faculty, University of Cologne  Cologne Germany"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Christine M.","family":"Freitag","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Child and Adolescent Psychiatry, Psychosomatics and Psychotherapy, Autism Research and Intervention Center of Excellence University Hospital Frankfurt, Goethe University  Frankfurt am Main Germany"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"311","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2018,10,15]]},"reference":[{"key":"e_1_2_9_2_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1093\/cercor\/9.5.415"},{"key":"e_1_2_9_3_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1176\/appi.books.9780890425596"},{"key":"e_1_2_9_4_1","volume-title":"Wechsler\u2010Intelligenztest f\u00fcr Erwachsene: Ubersetzung und Adaptation der WAIS\u2010III von David Wechsler [Wechsler intelligence test for adults: translation and adaptation of WAIS\u2010III by David Wechsler]","author":"Aster M. v.","year":"2006"},{"key":"e_1_2_9_5_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/j.jecp.2011.02.001"},{"key":"e_1_2_9_6_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/j.neubiorev.2017.06.016"},{"key":"e_1_2_9_7_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1098\/rstb.2002.1220"},{"key":"e_1_2_9_8_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1146\/annurev.psych.57.102904.190152"},{"key":"e_1_2_9_9_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1192\/bjp.bp.113.143784"},{"issue":"2","key":"e_1_2_9_10_1","first-page":"61","article-title":"The development and evaluation of a computer\u2010based program to test and to teach the recognition of facial affect","volume":"61","author":"B\u00f6lte S.","year":"2002","journal-title":"International Journal of Circumpolar Health"},{"key":"e_1_2_9_11_1","volume-title":"Skala zur Erfassung sozialer reaktivit\u00e4t: Dimensionale Autismus\u2010Diagnostik.
