Abstract

Variations of season of birth among autistic individuals were studied. The replicability of previously reported increases in birth rates in the months of March and August were examined in groups of individuals with autism or mental retardation (the comparison group). The sample was obtained from the Yale Child Study Center Developmental Disabilities Clinic and from the DSM-IV Autism/PDD field trial. Data were analyzed by applying the Jonckheere test of ordinal trend and the chi-square test, with Yates correction factor. With respect to March and August births, and with calculations based on the beginning and middle of the month, no significant seasonal effect was observed. Samples were subcategorized into verbal and mute groups, and again results failed to support the seasonality hypothesis.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
