fMRI methods
We scanned eleven normal adults, and six autistic adults referred from local clinics.

Obviously there is a sex bias in our autism sample that isn't present in our normal group,
but it turns out that the sex-associated trend that we see in the normals would if anything bias our comparison in the opposite direction of what we've found;
I can say more about that at the end of I have time.
