Objective To explore the intellectual profile of children with autism spectrum disorders (ASD) combined with hypophrenia.Methods The study followed a matching design,37 children with ASD combined with hypophrenia and 40 with simply intelligence disability while paired based on gender and age were selected.The intellectual profile of the studied children was determined with the Wechsler intelligence scale for children-Chinese edition (WISC-R) scale.Results The full intelligence quotient (FIQ) of the ASD group and the control group were (54.70±8.26) and (54.60-±7.17),the differences were not statistically significant(P＞0.05).Verbal intelligence quotient(VIQ) and performance intelligence quotient(PIQ) of ASD group were(54.70±8.26) and (64.51±12.25) and the control group were(56.70±8.02) and(57.25±9.43).Children with ASD scored lower on VIQ and higher on PIQ.There was significant difference between the two groups(t=3.582,P＜0.01;t=2.928,P＜0.01).There was statistically significant difference on VIQ-PIQ of ASD group(t=8.14,P＜0.01).The group with ASD had a profile characterized by a high score on Puzzle and Block Design with a low comprehension score.The score of FIQ,VIQ as well as information,arithmetic,comprehension,Picture arrangement were negatively correlated with ABC (r=-0.36,P＜0.05;r=-0.40,P＜ 0.05;r=-0.41,P＜0.05;r=-0.44,P＜0.01;r=-0.44,P＜0.01;r=-0.35,P＜0.05).Conclusion Children with autism spectrum disorders with hypophrenia have special cognitive profile,which can be used to provide basis for making intervention strategies.
