the latest results from the London SNAP Project show that 1 in every 92 persons (1.086 percent), although earlier percentages show less (for example, 18 years ago it was at 0.66 %). Many Experts, Scientists, Psychologists Psychiatrists etc. will beleive that there are more persons with aspergers than diagnosed, like disabled persons government representative John Greally (New Zealand) claims the real percentage including undiagnosed is roughly Double. Also, it is more likely for males to have aspergers than females, the diagnosis rate for boys is 7 times higher than women: people have argued this has something to do with genetics, for example, male genes are more similar to the gentic setup of someone with aspergers than a woman's, thus creating men to be more of an autistic nature. other's will say it's part of a woman's genetic setup to act as they do not have asperger's or appear that way, although they are autistic. so far there is only evidence and theories, not proof.
jatgm - i happen to have aspergers, honestly its just somthing you have to compensate for. if you have it you probly dont even know it, i didnt untill recently i didnt know, i used a mathmatical formula to determine what to say in a conversation because i am socially challenged and a gps to go places because i have extremely poor directional skills. both worked poorly and were noticeable but it was undiagnosed until under a year ago, im 18 currently.
