This study aimed to investigate parent-reported ASD and ADHD symptoms in a large sample of boys and girls with and without ASD. Method: A total of 124 normally intelligent children, half of them girls, 64 with autistic disorder or Asperger\u2019s disorder, and 60 age- and gender-matched typically developing, aged 7 to 12 years, were recruited. Parents completed questionnaires regarding autistic and ADHD symptoms. Results: No gender differences in social difficulties but more repetitive motor movements, communication difficulties, and inattention were reported in males, regardless of group. Younger boys with ASD had more elevated levels of hyperactivity-impulsivity than younger girls with ASD. Conclusion: Gender differences in autistic symptoms and inattention in ASD reflected gender differences in typical children. More pronounced hyperactivity in younger boys with ASD could contribute to higher rates of clinical referral than girls.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1177\/1087054712455502","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2012,8,21]],"date-time":"2012-08-21T21:58:19Z","timestamp":1345586299000},"page":"627-635","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1177\/sage-journals-update-policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":69,"title":["Gender Profiles of Behavioral Attention in Children With Autism Spectrum Disorder"],"prefix":"10.1177","volume":"20","author":[{"given":"Tamara","family":"May","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"School of Psychology & Psychiatry, Monash University, Victoria, Australia"},{"name":"Centre for Developmental Psychiatry & Psychology, Monash University, Victoria, Australia"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Kim","family":"Cornish","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"School of Psychology & Psychiatry, Monash University, Victoria, Australia"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Nicole J.","family":"Rinehart","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"School of Psychology & Psychiatry, Monash University, Victoria, Australia"},{"name":"Centre for Developmental Psychiatry & Psychology, Monash University, Victoria, Australia"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"179","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2012,8,21]]},"reference":[{"key":"bibr1-1087054712455502","volume-title":"Diagnostic and statistical manual of mental disorders","author":"American Psychiatric Association","year":"2000","edition":"4"},{"key":"bibr2-1087054712455502","unstructured":"American Psychiatric Association.
