This study investigated personality and neurobehavioral differences between 16 children with Asperger's Disorder, 15 children with High-Functioning Autism (HFA), and 31 controls, all ranging in age from 5-17 years, M age = 10.7 years, SD = 3.0. Parents rated their children's behaviors on a 44-item autistic symptoms survey and on the 200-item Coolidge Personality and Neuropsychological Inventory (Coolidge, Thede, Stewart, & Segal (2002a). The Coolidge Personality and Neuropsychological Inventory for Children (CPNI): Preliminary psychometric characteristics. Behavior Modification, 26, 550-566). The results indicated that the two clinical samples were significantly elevated on the Executive Function Deficits scale and Attention-Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) scale compared to controls. There were more similarities than differences between the two clinical samples on the personality scales, although the Asperger's group scored significantly on the two scales with anxiety components.
本研究调查了16名阿斯伯格综合征患儿、15名高功能自闭症（HFA）患儿和31名对照儿童之间的人格及神经行为差异，所有儿童年龄在5至17岁之间，平均年龄（M年龄）=10.7岁，标准差（SD）=3.0。家长们通过一项包含44个项目的自闭症症状调查问卷以及200项的柯立芝人格与神经心理量表（柯立芝、西迪、斯图尔特和西格尔（2002年a）。儿童柯立芝人格与神经心理量表（CPNI）：初步心理测量特征。《行为修正》，26，550 - 566）对孩子的行为进行评分。结果表明，与对照组相比，两个临床样本在执行功能缺陷量表和注意力缺陷/多动障碍（ADHD）量表上的得分显著更高。在人格量表方面，两个临床样本之间的相似之处多于差异，不过阿斯伯格组在包含焦虑成分的两个量表上得分显著。
