One hundred people with autistic disorder (DSM-III-R) without a known cause who comprised a total population of children with autism were compared with "autistic-like" children, Asperger syndrome and age-matched comparison children from the general population and were examined with regard to month of birth. There was an excess of March birth in the group of children with autism. The possible reasons for this finding are discussed.
将100名患有自闭症障碍（DSM-III-R）且病因不明的儿童（他们构成了自闭症儿童的总体人群）与“自闭症样”儿童、阿斯伯格综合征儿童以及来自普通人群的年龄匹配对照儿童进行比较，并对其出生月份进行了检查。自闭症儿童组中3月份出生的人数过多。讨论了这一发现的可能原因。
