IQ and the genetics of autism.

Journal of child psychology and psychiatry, and allied disciplines - 1 Sept 1991

Szatmari P, Jones M B

Abstract excerpt

While there seems to be general agreement that genetic factors play some role in the etiology of autism, many important questions remain unresolved. The purpose of this paper is to review five issues with respect to the association between low IQ and autism from a familial-genetic viewpoint: (1) does IQ estimate the severity of the autistic genotype?; (2) what is the relationship between probands' and sibs' IQs?;...
