      Unsupervised data-driven stratification of mentalizing heterogeneity in autism 

      Lombardo,Michael V.; Lai,Meng-Chuan; Auyeung, Bonnie; Holt, R. J.; Allison, Carrie; Smith, P.; Chakrabarti,B.; Ruigrok,Amber N. V.; Suckling,John; Bullmore,Edward T.; Ecker,C.; Craig, Michael C.; Murphy,Declan G. M.; Happé,Francesca; Baron-Cohen,Simon (2016)
