Psyc 208 Final Exam: ASD And Women
Questions And Answers With Verified
Solutions Already Passed!!!
History - ANSWERS✔✔- Kanner: 8/11 were male


- Asperger: 4/4 cases he wrote in detail were male


- These early male-centred behavioural, clinical, and symptom descriptions may
have led to an underrepresentation of females in research, which in turn led to a
male-biased understanding of ASD (Chuan Lai, et. al., 2015)


Is ASD diagnosed more in males or females? - ANSWERS✔✔- "In the absence of
intellectual impairment autism spectrum disorder (ASD) is diagnosed both less and
later in females"


According to DSM- 5 - ANSWERS✔✔- Autism spectrum disorder is diagnosed
FOUR TIMES more often in MALES than in females.


- In clinic samples, FEMALES tend to be MORE LIKELY TO SHOW
ACCOMPANYING INTELLECTUAL DISABILITY, suggesting that girls
without accompanying intellectual impairments or language delays may go
unrecognized
- perhaps because of the subtler manifestation of social and communication
difficulties.


Ratios - ANSWERS✔✔- Commonly cited as 4:1

, - On average, the male to female ratio stands at 4.3:1, with this ratio increasing to
around 9:1 in the absence of comorbid intellectual impairment (Hiller et. al., 2015)


- Ratios for Low IQ individuals with ASD is estimated to be 2:1 (Centre for
Disease Control, 2012)


Measurement Bias - ANSWERS✔✔- ADOS/ADI did not factor in gender
differences when norming instruments


- Women are more likely to be diagnosed as AD/HD, Eating Disorders, Language
Delay, Anxiety Disorder


Measurement - ANSWERS✔✔- ADOS and ADI do not differentiate for gender


- Girls:
- Require more severe ASD symptoms for diagnosis


-More severe behavioural and cognitive impairment


-Are often underreported by teachers


Differences from Neurotypical Women - ANSWERS✔✔- Similar pattern to males:
lower social and communication skills, and higher restricted/stereotypical
behaviours


- Higher (than NT women) reported perceptions of low self-esteem, internalizing
(depression, anxiety) and externalizing (tantrums, crying) behaviours
