Selective Females Affliction in the Developmental Disorders of Childhood: A Literature Review
Abstract
Reviewed the literature regarding the putative finding that in the developmental disorders of childhood there is the paradox that the sex least frequently affected by a disorder (female) is the relatively more severely afflicted. Two major models that have sought to explain this paradox—the polygenetic multiple-threshold model and the constitutional variability model—are examined in the context of the following, disorders: autism, mental retardation, learning disability, conduct disorder, and attention-deficit hyperactivity disorder. Only modest support was found for this hypothesis as well as for the respective models.

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.
