Abstract
This study investigates how brain complexity and neurotype differences impact communication in mixed and matched neurotype pairs, using Mutual Information (MI), a metric for evaluating information exchange, and individual brain functional organization metrics. We hypothesize that dyads with similar neural organization will have higher MI values, indicating more efficient communication.
