Traits of autism spectrum disorder in school-aged children with gender dysphoria: A comparison to clinical controls.

Abstract: Objective: Studies of children with gender dysphoria (GD) have reported an overrepresentation of autism spectrum disorder (ASD) or traits. One limitation of these studies has been the absence of a concurrent comparison group of children referred for other clinical problems. The present study addressed this gap by comparing 61 children referred for GD with 40 children referred for other clinical concerns (age range, 4 -12 years). Method: ASD caseness was measured in 2 ways: (a) a Diagnostic and Statistical Manu… Show more

“…Some assume that the cause of a trans identity is ultimately from combinations of genetics, neural development, prenatal hormones (Roselli, 2018) or post-natal environmental-induced gene expression. A more interactive nature-nurture explanation is illustrated by the elevated incidence of gender dysphoria among the autistic (Leef et al, 2019;Mahfouda et al, 2019). Autism is understood to be primarily the result of embryonic processes on brain development (Estes et al, 2019).…”

“…Erste klinische empirische Studien, darunter zwei Kohortenstudien (Becerra-Culqui et al, 2018;de Vries, Noens, Cohen-Kettenis, van Berckelaer-Onnes & Doreleijers, 2010) sowie fünf Chart-Reviews (Holt, Skagerberg, & Dunsford, 2016;Kaltiala-Heino, Sumia, Työläjärvi, & Lindberg, 2015;Leef et al, 2019;Nahata, Quinn, Caltabellotta, & Tishelman, 2017;Spack et al, 2012) untersuchten, wie häufi g GD und ASS gemeinsam in klinischen, auf GD spezialisierten Einrichtungen vorlagen. Zusammenfassend lag die Prävalenz von ASS bei Kindern und Jugendlichen mit GD zwischen 4.7 und 26 %.…”

“…Zusammenfassend lag die Prävalenz von ASS bei Kindern und Jugendlichen mit GD zwischen 4.7 und 26 %. Die Schätzungen hingen davon ab, ob in den Zentren ausschließlich Fälle mit einer Diagnose für GD (de Vries et al, 2010;Leef et al, 2019;Nahata et al, 2017;Spack et al, 2012) oder auch subklinische Manifestationen (sogenannte Gendervarianz) miteinbezogen wurden (Becerra-Culqui et al, 2018;Holt et al, 2016;Kaltiala-Heino et al, 2015).…”
