AQ: 27
Aspie: 103
NT: 119

Can't seem to get my EQ score, just a set of strengths and weaknesses. I don't want to buy the darned thing. Anyone have any ways around it?

I always score fairly high on the EQ and lower on the SQ-I think that's because as a child,reading moods was a survival mechanism and also I have executive dysfunction. I score high on HSP. I've always understood that people on the spectrum are not incapable of learning how to do some social things, they just don't learn automatically like other people. I am very good at seeing body language and facial expressions(I am much better at this if I'm observing and not directly involved), but I don't have a flipping clue as to how I'm supposed to respond and I'm known to misinterpret or over interpret. It will never come naturally. My difficulties are mostly in the social range-If I don't have specific things to talk about I want to avoid relatives even. I have difficulties in communication too. I either say too much or too little. I say the wrong thing, although I am aware that sometimes things are better left unsaid. I have never actively sought a friendship. I get anxious if I run out of small talk and bring up subjects out of the blue.


Yep.
I am 'inappropriate'.
Don't ask what is appropriate.
People get angrier.
It sucks.

Your Aspie score: 111 of 200
Your neurotypical (non-autistic) score: 80 of 200
You seem to have both Aspie and neurotypical traits


I have nonverbal learning disorder so my score seems to make sense. Lol.

You are very likely an Aspie

PRETTY SURE I'M AN ASPIE!! ! Though I present as a neuro-typical, with my Clarke Kent glasses, It's an act, I must rush away when summoned by a distant cry. Not to save anyone, just cause I'm distracted.

The BAP results. I don´t understand:

All the others: "You are probably on the broader phenotype or in fact autistic".
?????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????


They're the POSSIBLE results list. You have to look at each graph/score and figure out which one you are.
I was confused by the results page too at first!! !! !! !! !!

Yes, I understand, but I don´t understand the graphs.
Example 1: "You scored 83% on rigid, 31% higher than your peers" and the graph is cut by a vertical line, symbolizing my score, a bit to the right of average.
Example 2: "You scored 87% of pragmatic higher than 46% of your peers", and this time "my" vertical line crosses the graph a bit to the left of average
How come?

Aspie: 128
Nt: 89
Most likely an aspie.

Language matters, when the questions are to be interpreted. The basic pattern remains the same, but my scores rose, when I took the test in swedish ("brother" to danish).
The questions in themselves make one look at things from another point than usual and lead to detections.

I am probably living proof of the inaccuracy of self assessment instruments as quantitative measures. I interact with colleagues relatively successfully throughout the day and contribute at meetings as long as it is work related. Although skilled at faking my way through very brief expected social interactions with support staff, colleagues, and bosses, I avoid going to lunch and after work socializing unless absolutely necessary. I operate at a much higher level than these scores might indicate. On the other hand I come home feeling like my soul has been sucked out and wish I could go back to locking myself in an office for eight to ten plus hours a day doing research and writing.

INTJ - Introvert(78%) iNtuitive(25%) Thinking(88%) Judging(78%)

AQ 37

RAADS-R (all scores above the test threshold values), Total score 141.0
Language 14.0; Social relatedness 72.0; Sensory/motor 34.0; Circumscribed interests 21.0

BAPQ scored above the cutoff on all three scales.
Clearly, you are either autistic or on the broader autistic phenotype. You probably are not very social, and when you do interact with others, you come off as strange or rude without meaning to. You probably also like things to be familiar and predictable and don't like change es, especially unexpected ones. Really more true than I want to admit. :?
You scored 123% on aloof, higher than 88% of your peers.
You scored 103% on rigid, higher than 65% of your peers.
You scored 97% on pragmatic, higher than 65% of your peers.
You scored 5% on diagnosis, higher than 52% of your peers.

Alexithymia: 129 Points You show high alexithymic traits. 8O

In this category you show high alexithymic traits.

In this category you show high alexithymic traits.
Category: Sexual Difficulties and Disinterest: 14 Points <10 - 12>
In this category you show high alexithymic traits.

Whole faces test score: 9/20, well below average at reading expressions.
Reading the mind in the eyes score: 16. A typical score is in the range 22-30. A score under 22 indicates you find this quite difficult. Yep, I do not read emotions (other than the obvious ones and emoticons) well.

Systemising Quotient (SQ) score 109.0 I like to categorize things. :)

Just a typical loner middle-aged INTJ narrowly focussed nerd professional afflicted with ADHD, with a few intense interests (art, guitars, some sci-fi and tech, cooking, and comparative religion), utterly uninterested in much my coworkers seem to be fascinated by (football, kids, lawns, reality tv, etc.) and with very little tolerance for having to hear such fascinations, especially when I have work to do and am required to wait for an end to idle chit chat to have a question answered. Self assessment tools seem accurate in gross qualitative, but not quantitative, terms.

I would have thought, that the mood level of a certain period would affect the test results, but apparently they don´t.
The results I got during an introverted, slightly depressive period only vary 1-2 points from those of a socially active and rather happy period.

Take The AQ Test


Psychologist Simon Baron-Cohen and his colleagues at Cambridge's Autism Research Centre have created the Autism-Spectrum Quotient, or AQ, as a measure of the extent of autistic traits in adults. In the first major trial using the test, the average score in the control group was 16.4. Eighty percent of those diagnosed with autism or a related disorder scored 32 or higher. The test is not a means for making a diagnosis, however, and many who score above 32 and even meet the diagnostic criteria for mild autism or Asperger's report no difficulty functioning in their everyday lives.


My score 45

I won't directly post my RDOS Aspie-quiz result because I know it often changes. I average around 120 AS / 80 NT, and my profile always has a distinct "ceratopsian head" shape, with a frill around 6-7 from Aspie talent to Aspie communication, then a nearly straight line to a "muzzle" around 5-6 from NT perception to NT communication, then a slightly concave line from NT communication to Aspie Talent with sometimes a small "horn" at NT compulsion.

As for the AQ test, I average around 30-35.

My BAP test is around 115-80-85.

Ritvo Test

Scores with a yellow background are above the test threshold values. If your total score is above the threshold it may be worth getting professionally assessed.

The average score for males with ASD (264 people took this test) 134.3 10.7 66.1 31.7 25.8
The average score for females with ASD (182 people took this test) 166.6 13.1 78.4 43.1 32.0
The average score for males with suspected ASD (1106 people took this test) 145.3 11.1 74.9 32.0 27.4
