Title: | Effects of Diagnostic Severity upon Sex Differences in Behavioural Profiles of Young Males and Females with Autism Spectrum Disorder | Contributor(s): | Bitsika, Vicki (author) ; Sharpley, Christopher F (author) | Publication Date: | 2019-11 | Early Online Version: | 2019-08-03 | DOI: | 10.1007/s10803-019-04159-x | Handle Link: | https://hdl.handle.net/1959.11/28104 | Abstract: | To determine if diagnostic severity of Autistic Spectrum Disorder (ASD) affected sex differences in the detailed ASD-related behavioural profiles of young males and female, two samples of males and females with a diagnosis of ASD, aged between 6 and 17 years, were compared across the 65 items of the Social Responsiveness Scale (2nd ed.). Results are reported for a sample of males and females matched on age and IQ (n = 51 pairs) and a smaller sample matched on age, IQ and ADOS-2 severity (n = 32 pairs). ASD-related behaviours from the SRS-2 that were significantly and meaningfully different across sexes were identified for both samples. ADOS-2 diagnostic severity was associated with different sets of sex-based differences in SRS-2 item scores. | Publication Type: | Journal Article | Source of Publication: | Journal of Autism and Developmental Disorders, 49(11), p. 4429-4440 | Publisher: | Springer New York LLC | Place of Publication: | United States of America | ISSN: | 1573-3432 0162-3257 |
