Autism=Poor executive function? Try the flexibilty test.

Post Reply New Topic

I thought I'd be really bad at this. However, if I'm reading this correctly, I was very accurate but quite slow (although I did get faster with each round).

Flexibility Test:
Accuracy: 96th percentile (192 of 192)
Speed: 14th percentile (1149ms)

ETA: Thanks for the link - I'm really bored right now, so this has given me something to do!

Accuracy: 8th percentile (84.4%)
Speed: 28th percentile (966 ms)

I had a bit of a trigger finger, I think. Must be the ADHD (impulsivity).

Also, I was judged to have a slow processing speed in school.

EDIT: Now that I think about it, I also had lots of distracting thoughts at times.

Overall accuracy: 8th percentile.
Response time: 10th percentile.

My executive functioning is terrible, so this doesn't come as a surprise. My neurotypical sister also took this test, and she scored in the 22nd percentile for accuracy and 19th percentile for speed.

Does anyone know any good NT-saturated forums that would be open to taking and responding to this sort of test? (without upsetting moderators) It would be good to see how this group compares to others.

I decided to try it one more time, so this is my second time. I should point out though, last time was in the middle of the night.

This is the second time:
Overall accuracy: 84th percentile. (99%, 190/192)
Response time: 92nd percentile. (597ms)

I can actually process visual, and written information very quickly. Quicker than most NTs I seem to know.

on other similar test, I usually score in the 80 to 90% range.

These reflex test remind me a lot of the TOVA (Test of Variables of Attention) used to diagnose ADHD/ADD. I suspect those who do poorly on this, would do just as pooly on the TOVA test.

Sixth and eleventh percentile! I thought I did well up until I saw that.

I wonder if someone who scored poorly, tried to take it a second time. See if you notice a big change?

Well I did surprisingly well
Overall accuracy: 22nd percentile. 93.8%
Response time: 42nd percentile. 870ms

i did worse than i thought i would
Overall accuracy: 2nd percentile. 53%
Response time: 4th percentile 1553 ms

I stopped after the first test, kind of long and the lime green was REALLY loud and it hurt, needless to say I do know I performed very poorly.
