<div class="">
<blockquote style="margin: 0px 0px 0px 40px; border: none; padding: 0px;" class="">
The IBIS Executive Committee voted to change the inclusion criteria for IBIS EP and Infant DS to state that at least one parent who is attending assessments (or completing phone interviews) must have self-reported proficiency in English AND that the child will have
sufficient language exposure to participate in assessments administered in English. All parents in the study will be asked English proficiency questions. </blockquote>

A small group will (1) craft language proficiency questions, (2) create a short list of language exposure questionnaires to be presented to the BBC for vote, (3) recommend a minimum percentage of English language exposure.</blockquote>

<blockquote style="margin: 0px 0px 0px 40px; border: none; padding: 0px;" class="">
The IBIS Executive Committee voted to not exclude any IBIS School Age families based on languages spoken in the home. A review of the IBIS School Age IRB indicated that there is not inclusion/exclusion criteria around language spoken in the home. <b class="">A
note to authors of work using IBIS 1, 2, and School Age data</b>- since we did not ask families to report what languages were spoken in the home we can not definitely say that English was the primary language. The IBIS Executive Committee recommended that
a language exposure and language use measure be added to the IBIS School Age and IBIS Adolescent study (if funded). </blockquote>

Meghan Swanson's lab, who is also co-leading the white matter project. The initial goal is to take a hypothesis driven approach and see if we find significant association in surface area/cortical thickness regions that correspond to the areas of the brain
where we see signal in white matter.</div>
