Özet:
Restrictive repetitive behaviors (RRBs) are a hallmark of autism spectrum disorder (ASD). However, it was unclear whether male and female children diagnosed with ASD might differ in amount and severity of RRBs and if age is a contributing variable. To fill this important gap in the literature, data from the Center for Autism Research Evaluation and Services (CARES) were analysed to determine whether male (n = 80) and female (n = 29) children (ages 2--17) diagnosed with ASD might differ in RRBs after accounting for age and ASD severity (Hypothesis 1) and in ASD severity after accounting for age and RRBs (Hypothesis 2), as well as whether age was significantly associated with RRBs (Hypothesis 3) or ASD severity (Hypothesis 4). Data were analysed using ANCOVA and multiple linear regression at the p < .05 threshold for statistical significance. No significant differences were found between male and female children diagnosed with ASD in RRBs or ASD severity. Age was not significantly related to RRBs or ASD severity. While this study was limited by the modest sample size and the retrospective design, the most important implication of this study is that clinicians should not make sex-based assumptions regarding RRBs in children with ASD.
