Matlab toolbox for testing hypotheses about the human connectome. NBS has been widely used to identify connections and networks comprising the connectome that are associated with an experimental effect or a between-group difference. User provides a series of connectivity matrices from different cohorts, or from the same subject during different experimental conditions. Connectivity matrices are inferred from neuroimaging data using other packages that, for example, count the number of tractography streamlines that interconnect each pair of regions (diffusion-MRI), or measure the extent of inter-regional correlation in BOLD response (fMRI). User specifies hypothesis to be tested at every connection with the general linear model. Features include: graphical user interface; NBSview, a basic network viewer modeled on SPMresults; exchange blocks for repeated measures; options to measure network size with intensity or extent; false discovery rate (FDR) option. Developed by Zalesky, Fornito, Cocchi and Bullmore.

The Open-Source Robotic Biorepository & Informatics Technology is a platform that aims to make blood samples and health related information available to researchers. This resource is intended to help researchers understand human biology so they can develop treatments that are effective for each individual. In the simplest terms, ORBIT is a large library of blood specimens. Patient recruitment for ORBIT is being rolled out of Aurora''s 13 hospitals and 120 clinics in eastern Wisconsin, starting with its Milwaukee facilities. So far, more than 70 percent of patients have agreed to participate. If patients agree to participate, blood left over from their medical tests is sent to the ORBIT lab. Here a robot extracts the DNA from the blood, bar codes the sample and stores it in a freezer. The barcode allows the informatics technology to link each sample with the appropriate privacy-protected electronic medical record. The open source aspect of ORBIT is intended to expand scientific discovery. Researchers who use ORBIT specimens will return their research results to ORBIT to minimize study repetition and to allow researchers from around the world to build on previous results.

Assessment test that is a measure of gaze stability, which helps identify individuals who may have a deficit of the vestibular system (which regulates internal balance). The NIH Toolbox Visual Acuity Test must be administered followed by the DVA Test. Participants are seated 12.5 feet from a computer monitor at eye level. For the DVA Test, participants wear lightweight headgear that contains a rate sensor, and are asked to move the head back and forth, as if saying no. Once the head is measured to be moving at greater than 180 degrees per second, an optotype flashes on the monitor, and the participant is asked to identify it. Smaller optotypes are displayed as the participant correctly identifies letters, and larger ones are displayed if the participant cannot correctly identify the letter shown, until the computer has calculated the smallest size that the participant can see with the head moving. This is calculated separately for head rotation leftward and rightward from center (though the participant continues shaking the head both ways), and this performance is compared to the participant's visual acuity when the head was stationary (the NIH Toolbox Visual Acuity Test score, sometimes referred to as static visual acuity in the context of the DVA test). The difference between static and dynamic visual acuity represents the vestibular contribution to gaze stability. The DVA Test takes approximately six minutes to administer and is recommended for ages 3-85.

Assessment test that directly measures participants' visual acuity, or distance vision. The participant is seated 12.5 feet away from a computer monitor at eye level, and letters (called optotypes) are displayed one at a time on the screen for the participant to identify, using both eyes at the same time. As the participant successfully identifies optotypes of a given size, smaller ones appear on the screen, until the computer program ascertains the smallest-size optotype the participant can successfully see. Conversely, the program displays larger optotypes if the participant cannot see the letter size that is first displayed, until a size that he/she can accurately see is found. For participants ages 3-7, only the letters H, O, T, and V are used, and children may point to a laminated card showing the letters if they cannot verbalize or cannot recall the letter names. For participants ages 8 and above, the entire set of optotypes is used, following a common protocol used in professional vision testing. This test takes approximately three minutes to administer and is recommended for ages 3-85.

A test to measure narcissism as a personality trait in social psychological research. Although there are several versions, a forty-item forced-choice version (Raskin & Terry 1988) is the one most commonly employed in current research. It is based on the DSM-III clinical criteria for narcissistic personality disorder (NPD), although it was designed to measure these features in the general population. Thus, the NPI is often said to measure normal or subclinical (borderline) narcissism (i.e., in people who score very high on the NPI do not necessarily meet criteria for diagnosis with NPD). Raskin and Terry (1988) identified seven factors of the NPI (i.e., Authority, superiority, exhibitionism, entitlement, vanity, exploitativeness and self-sufficiency), mapping roughly onto the DSM criteria for NPD. Since then, several studies have further examined the factor structure of the NPI with varying results. It should take most people five to ten minutes to complete.
