Here is an interesting test to test for EQ (emotional quotient) and SQ (systemizing quotient)

Interesting article here.

Here is where to take the tests: http://www.eqsq.com/eqsqtest.php

So, what do you think? What was your score?


That was fun.

I got

EQ - 10
SQ - 102

Extreme Systemizer

The control group had 0% females who are ES? Must not have had any Aspies in the control group!

Brain Types of Experimental Control Groups
Respondent Extreme E E Balanced S Extreme S
Males 0% 17% 31% 46% 6%
Females 7% 47% 32% 14% 0%

I had the same thoughts as I was taking the tests.


I was thinking the same thing. I think we were systematically organizing the test itself. :D

sooo.. that would mean my EQ score reflect that of a 12 year old... and my SQ score reflects that of a 21 year old (which means, my SQ was normal.. :D )


How do you know what age your score reflects?

Frankly, some things about these texts struck me as rather inaccurate.

The questions in the EQ test seemed to fall into two distinct categories: those related to social awareness (at which I did poorly) and those related to actual empathy (at which I did quite well). While the two may be related they are NOT one and the same thing. Not being able to read someone's facial expression or not knowing what to do in a social situation, or, for that matter, getting too wrapped up in a topic of interest is just not the same as having little emotion or not being unable to feel for someone who is in trouble. I'm not sure such things should be lumped in together.

Some of the SQ questions were of no relevance to me simply because they were not part of the subjects I am interested in. I have no idea about how legal or political procedures take place and have no intention to find out, but if most of the questions were about animals and nature, I am sure I would have had a much higher systemizing score. Besides, I'm not at all sure that systemizing using abstract categories (which I do very little) and visualizing the structure or details of things (which I do most of the time) are one and the same phenomenon; but, again, this test seems to equate them and puts them all together.

Some questions were structured in such a way that I wished there was a "not sure/can't say" option, for instance, the one about the committees and others like that. As far as I know, this is the first time that I come across anything about committee structure altogether, so I simply had no idea what to reply. Some questions were just vague, and again I wasn't sure how to answer them.

It just feels like another way of making sweeping statements about people to me.

I also do well at actual empathizing and poorly at social awareness. I feel a lot of compassion for other entities but often express it "wrong".
I'm also a female scoring as extreme systemetizing which is supposed to be 0% of all females.
I scored EQ of 19 and SQ of 77.

Sorry to bump such an old thread...but I am newly diagnosed and still in "self-discovery" mode, so I like taking these tests.


Your Emphathy Quotient (EQ) is 10 and your Systemizing Quotient (SQ) is 54.

What your score means

On average, most women score about 47 and most men about 42. Most people with Asperger Syndrome or high-functioning autism score about 20.

You have a lower than average ability for understanding how other people feel and responding appropriately.

Brain type: extreme systemizing
