Severity metric helps studies address autisms variability A new method for measuring severity in disorders such as autism can help researchers correct for the widely varying autism symptoms among study participants, according to a paper published in NeuroImage. The method, called population characterization of heterogeneity (PUNCH), lets scientists combine the results of multiple tests into a single severity score for each individual. Using severity scores, they can divide their samples in new ways, allowing them to detect subgroup characteristics that might otherwise remain hidden.
