As part of this project, which represents the second phase of data collection for CIFASD (CIFASD II), neurobehavioral testing took place at multiple research centers across the United States and South Africa, including (1) the Center for Behavioral Teratology at San Diego State University, (2) The Fetal Alcohol and Drug Exposure Clinic at Emory University, (3) Center on Alcoholism, Substance Abuse and Addictions at the University of New Mexico, (4) seven different communities throughout North Dakota, South Dakota, and Montana (Northern Plains), (5) the Fetal Alcohol and Related Disorders Clinic at the University of California, Los Angeles, and (6) the University of Cape Town, South Africa. Recruitment for the AE group differed by site location (for details see (Mattson et al., 2010a)). Subjects were recruited through various modalities from individual sites for on-going research or specifically for CIFASD. The varied testing sites ensure a large heterogeneous study population that is not biased by location or specific site characteristics. Data for this analysis were collected between 2008 and 2011.
