Autism is a developmental disorder marked by possible altered sensory responsivity to external stimuli. Naturalistic functional magnetic resonance imaging is a useful way to characterize brain activity using real-life dynamic stimuli (e.g., movie-watching). Inter-subject functional connectivity (ISFC) is sensitive to the stimulus-driven neural coupling across individuals and appears to track individual changes in psychiatric symptoms. Here, we compared ISFCs in groups of autistic (AUT) and neurotypical (NT) participants from two datasets from two countries using similar sets of short movie sti
