Methods 172 ASD children were investigated with self-made questionnaire from July, 2014 to Augest, 2015. The frequencies of motor behaviors, vocal behaviors and behavioral problems, and the intensity of the behavioral problems in the period with or without gastrointestinal symptoms were compared. Results The frequencies of motor behaviors (F=67.4, P<0.001), vocal behaviors (F=43.6, P<0.001) and behavioral prob-lems (F=79.4, P<0.001), and the intensity of the behavioral problems (F=65.7, P<0.001) were all more in the period with gastrointestinal symptoms than without gastrointestinal symptoms.
