Kanner's descriptions of the children showing the abnormal behaviour pattern he observed and named "early infantile autism" are summarized. E.A. and N. Tinbergen's ethological theory of the aetiology of this syndrome is outlined and criticized. The major problem in evaluating this theory, apart from the absence of any evidence in its favour, is the lack of precision with which the Tinbergens use the terms "autism" and "Kanner's syndrome".
总结了坎纳对那些表现出他所观察到并命名为“早期婴儿自闭症”的异常行为模式的儿童的描述。概述并批评了E.A.和N.廷伯根关于该综合征病因的行为学理论。除了缺乏任何支持该理论的证据外，评估这一理论的主要问题在于廷伯根夫妇使用“自闭症”和“坎纳综合征”这两个术语时缺乏精确性。
