Partially perhaps: Scientists have long suspected that there are genetic and environmental components to Asperger syndrome.A specific gene for Asperger syndrome, however, has never been identified. Instead, the most recent research indicates that there are most likely a common group of genes whose variations or deletions make an individual vulnerable to developing asd. Environmental factors undoubtedly also play a role.
