There are studies suggesting possible hereditary influence in autism. Data on 102 autistic children, 78 boys and 24 girls, showed that there was a significantly greater proportion of autistic girls than boys with IQs less than 50 and with evidence of brain damage. The autistic girls also had a greater proportion of relatives affected with autism or cognitive-language deficit than did the boys. The implication of sex differences in the possible mode of familial transmission of autism is discussed.
有研究表明自闭症可能存在遗传影响。对102名自闭症儿童（78名男孩和24名女孩）的数据研究显示，智商低于50且有脑损伤迹象的自闭症女孩比例明显高于男孩。与男孩相比，自闭症女孩的亲属中患自闭症或有认知语言缺陷的比例也更高。本文讨论了自闭症家族遗传可能模式中的性别差异含义。
