从父母的意见调查档案数据被用来确定胼胝体发育不全（ACC）的儿童的社会和行为问题的患病率。父母的意见进行了调查，使用儿童行为检查表（CBCL）的61名儿童与ACC谁是从档案中选择的基础上，建议一个相对较高的一般水平的功能的运动发展的标准。患有ACC的年幼儿童（2-5岁）被认为主要存在睡眠问题。年龄较大的ACC儿童（6-11岁）表现出注意力，社会功能，思维和躯体投诉的问题。患有ACC的年龄较大的儿童也与从先前研究中选择的52名自闭症儿童的CBCL数据进行了比较。几乎在所有量表上，ACC儿童的受损程度普遍低于自闭症儿童，在注意力、焦虑/抑郁、社会功能和不寻常想法方面的问题明显不那么严重。与自闭症诊断标准相关的进一步问卷调查表明，一些ACC儿童具有有助于在社会互动和社会沟通领域诊断自闭症的特征，但表现出重复和限制行为的儿童较少。
Archival data from a survey of parent observations was used to determine the prevalence of social and behavioral problems in children with agenesis of the corpus callosum (ACC). Parent observations were surveyed using the Child Behavior Checklist (CBCL) for 61 children with ACC who were selected from the archive based on criteria of motor development suggesting a relatively high general level of functioning. Younger children with ACC (ages 2-5) were rated as primarily having problems with sleep. Older children with ACC (ages 6-11) manifested problems in attention, social function, thought, and somatic complaints. The older children with ACC were also compared to CBCL data from 52 children with autism who were selected from a previous study. Children with ACC were generally less impaired than children with autism on nearly all scales, with significantly less severe problems in the areas of attention, anxiety/depression, social function, and unusual thoughts. A further questionnaire related to diagnostic criteria for autism indicated that some children with ACC had traits that are among those that contribute to the diagnosis of autism within the domains of social interaction and social communication, but fewer who manifest repetitive and restricted behaviors.
