Earlier surveys of a parents' support organization revealed a 3:1 ratio of parents of sons to parents of daughters. Three possible explanations for this ratio were considered based on differential onset, behavioral differences, and marital status. A re-analysis of survey data indicated that the most reasonable explanation of the gender difference is the greater propensity for anti-social behavior on the part of sons, leading to increased parental needs for support and outside assistance.
一个家长支持组织早期的调查显示，儿子的家长与女儿的家长比例为3:1。基于发病差异、行为差异和婚姻状况，对这一比例提出了三种可能的解释。对调查数据的重新分析表明，对这种性别差异最合理的解释是儿子有更强的反社会行为倾向，导致家长对支持和外部援助的需求增加。
