Abstract
Observations on the intellectual and educational functioning of neonatally identified 47,XXY boys and their sibs are presented. Equations for predicting the intellectual abilities of extra X boys on the basis of those of their sibs are provided. These may be useful to professionals engaged in counselling parents or possible parents of 47,XXY males.Keywords
