Initial contributions were sought from members of the ADHD-200 Consortium
conducting autism research (Kennedy Krieger Institute, NYU Langone Medical
Center, Oregon Health & Science University, University of Pittsburgh).
Invitations to participate were extended based on personal communications,
recent publications and conference presentations. All investigators willing and
able to openly share previously collected awake R-fMRI data from individuals
with ASD and age- and sex-group matched TC were included. Institutional Review
Board (IRB) approval to participate, or explicit waiver to provide fully
anonymized data, was required prior to data contribution.
All contributions were based on studies approved by local IRBs, and data
were fully anonymized (removing all 18 HIPAA protected health information
identifiers, and face information from structural images). All data distributed
were visually inspected prior to release.
