Which papers count
A paper counts here when it is animal research, mentions marble burying in its title or abstract, and studies autism spectrum disorder.
We tell whether a paper studies autism spectrum disorder from its MeSH terms, the subject headings the National Library of Medicine adds when it indexes a paper. For a paper without MeSH terms, PubTator 3, NCBI's text-mining service, has to find the disease in the title or abstract. A paper can count under more than one disease model. A paper that mentions the test only in its methods is missed, so the count runs low.
The page on autism spectrum disorder research names the subject headings we count as autism spectrum disorder. Download the test list for the search terms we used for marble burying, or the paper list for the PubMed ID of every paper behind these counts. Our main page, Behavioral tests in published research, has the full method and each source's terms of use.
