平均12年前，62名自闭症患者参与了一项前瞻性研究。目前，对最初62名患者中的53名（85.5%）有了重新测试的结果。结果显示，36人（67.9%）的得分在其原始智商组范围内。12人（22.6%）智商组上升，5人（9.4%）智商组下降。具有特殊临床重要性的是，观察到文兰适应行为评分一直低于认知评分，并且在高、中、低智商组中，适应不良行为出现的频率相同。讨论了这些新数据对理解自闭症自然史、教育和职业规划以及未来研究的意义。
Sixty-two autistic patients enrolled in a prospective study an average of 12 years ago. Current retesting results are now available on 53 of the original 62 patients (85.5%). Results indicate that 36 (67.9%) achieved scores within their original IQ group. Twelve (22.6%) moved up IQ groups and five (9.4%) moved down. Of particular clinical importance is the observation that Vineland Adaptive Behavior Scores were consistently lower than cognitive scores, and maladaptive behaviors occurred with equal frequency in the high, medium, and low IQ groups. The implications of this new data for understanding the natural history of autism, educational and vocational planning, and future research are discussed.
