Landau, Edwina C.; Cicchetti, Domenic V.; Klin, Ami; Volkmar, Fred R.
Journal of Autism and Developmental Disorders, v29 n5 p385-93 Oct 1999
This study attempted to replicate previously reported increases in birth rates in March and August for individuals with autism. Statistical analysis of 904 cases revealed no significant seasonal effect. Samples were subcategorized into verbal and mute groups and again results failed to support the seasonal hypothesis.
