Abstract
A person with Turner's syndrome was described by Dr. Charles Pears in thePhilosophical Transactions of the Royal Society, London, in 1805. The description included behavioral traits of mild temperament, absence of heteroxesual interests, and concern about social stigmatization. These traits are the object of current behavior genetic studies of persons with Turner's syndrome.This publication has 7 references indexed in Scilit:
