I beieve all I recieved was 167/200 aspie vs 28/200 NT, and no other traits mentioned.


Ahh. The SPQ-test isn't part of the swedish version. This is because I need to use the exact wordings of the original test to be able to claim conclusions (it is not because I was too lazy to translate). That's also why I used only two answer alternatives, instead of 3 that would give better resolution.

IOW, if you want the other scores you need to do the test in english. Sorry.


Maybe you can provide the english test for swedish until you have translated. A number of swedish people can speak english. HECK, I can understand a lot of written swedish, even though I never studied it! I DID study german and danish though.

I think so too about a lot of the questions there. Just for example, isn't it really normal to feel stressed in unfamiliar situations, to fiddle with things, to have tunes/rhythms stuck in your head or to have difficulty with recognizing phone numbers when said in a different way? Actually I don't know anyone who doesn't do that, so I think such questions should either be left out or explained better.

A lot of AS IS personality quirks. Even the idea of reading early. Nearly EVERYONE would probably do it if they decided to. Of course, most really young kids don't think of such things. It is almost an inate personality quirk that probably triggers it. The part of the mind that seems most affected in people with AS, and gave rise to the term autism, primarily simply controls personality. GRANTED it gives you some basic goals, and interprets actions in certain ways, but that does end up really affecting the personality.

BTW RDOS HIMSELF states that the test should be simply used to help confirm AS or totally discount it, and not to diagnose it. It IS possible that an NT person could test as AS but probably far less likely that an AS person would test as NT. ALSO, that test doesn't discriminate among some other disorders.

To the best of my knowledge, there are only a few simple medically accepted tests for AS and they aren't supposed to be released to the public. It is a shame. I tried to purchase some, but it basically said I needed approval or a license. 8-( Even THOSE probably aren't REALLY definitive though.

Where would be the best place to find an explanation of the terms used for the psyzotypal test?

TIA,

I found some of the questions for the schizotypal test were kinda vague and wasn't fully sure they really applied to me so likely I was completely off on that but well... *shrugs*

If they were isolated, individual behaviours, then the idea of a few quirks would apply. When a large number of correlated behaviours occur together, it may be a sign of something bigger.

I didn't like a lot of the questions, especially in the SPQ test. I skipped a lot on both tests, because the honest answer is I don't know. How would I know how others are perceiving me? About some things I do, but...

I also thought the questions for what I assume are the "Odd beliefs or magical thinking" part are nuts. Yes I've seen UFOs. So have tons of people. So did other people when I was seeing them. How is that "magical thinking"? Were they aliens? Some kind of weird technology that's completely classified? I have no idea, but they clearly weren't planes.

I've also always seemed to have very weak psychic abilities. Also not "magical", and my immediate family knows about it (and I have or maybe had a connection to my ex-fiance. I don't think I'm making it up when others are having the exact same experience :roll: ).

Now I DO possibly have what might be "magical thinking" related to my OCD or OCD traits, but the test didn't bother asking about THOSE :D Honestly I don't know what to think about that. I tried quiting some (mild) OCD stuff I do, and almost immedietly stuff at work started falling apart. No idea what that means, but I can't completely discount that there is some kind of strange thing going on there (though I realize it's quite likely just "magical thinking" :D )

By the way those mentioned in the 2ed test are not odd beliefs. When you see things like that happen with your own eyes or you experience it yourself. How can they be odd beliefs indicative of a mental disorder?
