The epidemiological data pertaining to the XYY genotype suggest that there is a three- to fourfold overrepresentation of XYY individuals in mental and penal settings and a twentyfold overrepresentation of mental-penal (special security) settings. The reasons behind the risk for behavioral disability are not known at this time. Tallness and ondulocystic acne are reported frequently to be associated with the genotype. Since much of the available information about the XYY sex chromosome complement is biased, more data is required before definitive statements can be made about the personality characteristics or intelligence of the vast majority of XYY men not appearing in social settings oriented towards behavioral deviancy.
与XYY基因型相关的流行病学数据表明,在精神和刑罚环境中,XYY个体的比例高出三到四倍,而在精神刑罚(特殊安全)环境中则高出二十倍。目前尚不清楚行为残疾风险背后的原因。据报道,身材高大和囊肿性痤疮经常与该基因型相关。由于关于XYY性染色体组成的现有信息大多存在偏差,因此在对绝大多数未出现在行为偏差导向的社会环境中的XYY男性的人格特征或智力做出明确陈述之前,还需要更多数据。
