Examples of functional and structural, experimental and survey results. Regional correlations between nodal functional network efficiencies and Attention Network Test orienting scores (top), and between nodal structural network clustering coefficients and Systemizing Quotient scores (bottom). Sizes of the regions reflect of AAL-90 parcellations and are not individually any indication of network extents. Orienting is associated with a functional attention network comprising basal ganglia and frontal, parietal and visual cortices, overlapping substantially with that for social responsiveness (not shown), whereas systemising is associated with structural contextual-association networks within parahippocampal cortices. Right supramarginal gyrus, the cortical region most strongly associated with attention orienting functionally, also is the region associated with theory-of-mind structurally
