我们假设患有先天性肾上腺增生症（CAH）的女孩，在产前雄激素水平高于正常水平，会表现出男性化的行为，表现出性别差异。因此，我们研究了3-8岁CAH儿童和未受影响的3 - 8岁男性和女性亲属的打闹游戏和首选玩伴的性别。在打闹游戏中的假设性别差异被发现，未受影响的男孩比未受影响的女孩表现出更多的打闹游戏。然而，CAH女孩与未受影响的女孩相似。此外，CAH男孩表现出减少打闹游戏。相反，性别的首选玩伴显示了假设的结果模式。存在性别差异，未受影响的男孩更喜欢男孩，未受影响的女孩更喜欢女孩。此外，与未受影响的女孩相比，CAH女孩的偏好男性化。结果进行了讨论，在社会，荷尔蒙和疾病因素的可能影响。
We hypothesized that girls with congenital adrenal hyperplasia (CAH), who experience higher than normal levels of androgens prenatally, would show masculinization of behaviors that show sex differences. Therefore, we examined rough-and-tumble play and sex of preferred playmates in 3-8-year-old children with CAH and in unaffected 3-8-year-old male and female relatives. The hypothesized sex differences in rough-and-tumble play were seen, with unaffected boys showing more rough-and-tumble play than unaffected girls. However, CAH girls were similar to unaffected girls. Additionally, CAH boys showed reduced rough-and-tumble play. In contrast, sex of preferred playmates showed the hypothesized pattern of results. There were sex differences, with unaffected boys preferring boys and unaffected girls preferring girls. In addition, the preferences of girls with CAH were masculinized compared to those of unaffected girls. Results are discussed in terms of possible influences of social, hormonal, and illness factors.
