男性和女性自闭症儿童，384名男孩和91名女孩，年龄3至8岁，对智力，适应性功能，接受性词汇，知觉和眼手一体化的非语言措施，并对影响，游戏，相关和人类兴趣的评级进行了比较。男性在眼手整合和感知技能方面表现出更先进的表现，在心理教育量表（PEP）上，男性的非语言智商（IQ）、社交能力和皮博迪图片词汇测验（PPVT）智商高于女性。当控制非言语智商时，性别的主要影响仍然存在，但PPVT评分和眼手整合和感知量表的性别差异消失。男性表现出更多的不寻常的视觉反应和不适当的，更刻板的发挥比女性。这些结果进行了讨论的遗传阈值和半球侧化的性别差异的假设。
Comparisons were made between male and female children with autism, 384 boys and 91 girls, aged 3 to 8 yr, on nonverbal measures of intelligence, adaptive functioning, receptive vocabulary, perception and eye-hand integration, and on ratings of affect, play, and relating and human interest. Males showed more advanced performances on eye-hand integration and perception skills on the Psychoeducational Profile (PEP) and had higher nonverbal IQ social quotients and Peabody Picture Vocabulary Test (PPVT) IQ than females. When nonverbal IQ was controlled, the main effect of sex remained; however, sex differences on PPVT scores and on eye-hand integration and perception scale disappeared. Males showed more unusual visual responses and less appropriate, more stereotypic play than females. These results are discussed in terms of hypotheses concerning sex differences in genetic thresholds and in hemispheric lateralization.
