If you're like me, you've studied body language with so much intensity that you could out test most NTs. This kind of detail work is exactly what aspies are supposed to excel at.

Curious that when we apply this hyper focus to faces instead of something more traditionally masculine, like trucks or baseball, suddenly we aren't fitting the researchers model of what autism is supposed to be. It's almost like they've exclusively studied males. Oh, wait. They have.

Also, I extend my hand in congratulations on beating my score of 31. :cheers:


Exactly! i was studying Ekman, and his books on facial recognition...recognising deceit, emotions revealed etc....It can be learned I guess....just another survival strategy.

And thanks :D

I did it today and had 18/36 (I thought that it will be better). Average score is 26.2, or 21.9 for adults with AS or HFA. I did very similar test (with 36 questions) two times ealier and I had 16 two times.

Have you try Polish version? Maybe you would do better with emotions described in our language.
