高功能自闭症儿童与两个对照组在焦虑和社交担忧方面进行了比较。比较对照组包括有特殊语言障碍(SLI)的儿童和发育正常的儿童。每组由15名年龄在8岁到12岁之间的儿童组成，年龄和性别匹配。研究发现，自闭症儿童在这两个指标上都最焦虑。自闭症组焦虑分量表得分较高的是分离焦虑和强迫症。这些发现是在自闭症和焦虑症理论的背景下在一般儿童群体中讨论的。对今后的研究提出了建议。
High-functioning children with autism were compared with two control groups on measures of anxiety and social worries. Comparison control groups consisted of children with specific language impairment (SLI) and normally developing children. Each group consisted of 15 children between the ages of 8 and 12 years and were matched for age and gender. Children with autism were found to be most anxious on both measures. High anxiety subscale scores for the autism group were separation anxiety and obsessive-compulsive disorder. These findings are discussed within the context of theories of autism and anxiety in the general population of children. Suggestions for future research-are made.
