ImpactNeutral impact

Abstract in brief

  • The study found that females with ASD tend to camouflage their symptoms more than males, and this camouflaging is linked to lower emotional expressivity in females.
  • Overall ASD symptoms measured by the Autism Spectrum Quotient (AQ) were slightly higher in females than males, nearing significance, which contrasts some previous findings.
  • The research supports the idea that sex and gender differences influence ASD symptom presentation and camouflaging behaviors, highlighting the need for gender-sensitive approaches in diagnosis and support.]
