While research on the prevalence of co-occurring autism spectrum conditions (ASC) and trans gender modality (TGM) is available, less is known about the underlying mechanism of this association. Insight is needed to improve treatment of trans autistic people. This review provides an overview of theories on the ASC-TGM link and the available evidence for/against them published between January 2016 and October 2020. A systematic search was performed in PubMed, PsycINFO, Web of Science, and Scopus. This resulted in 36 studies, in which 15 theories were identified. Results indicate all theories lack substantial empirical support. Unlikely and promising theories were identified. The most promising theories were those on resistance to social norms and weakened sex differences. Future directions are provided.
虽然已有关于自闭症谱系障碍(ASC)和跨性别形态(TGM)共病患病率的研究,但对于这种关联的潜在机制了解较少。需要深入了解以改善对跨性别自闭症患者的治疗。本综述概述了2016年1月至2020年10月期间发表的关于ASC与TGM关联的理论以及支持或反对这些理论的现有证据。在PubMed、PsycINFO、科学网和Scopus中进行了系统检索。这产生了36项研究,其中识别出15种理论。结果表明所有理论都缺乏实质性的实证支持。识别出了不太可能的理论和有前景的理论。最有前景的理论是那些关于对社会规范的抗拒和弱化的性别差异的理论。还提供了未来的研究方向。
