The very very big aspie test

Post Reply New Topic

This is a loooong aspie test - 147 questions, gives a two score basic result and an eight score breakdown of the sort of aspie traits you have.

I came out almost "borderline NT" on this one; only slightly more aspie-ish than NT-ish, and on the detailed breakdown I was "average, average, average" all the way down. However it struck me how many of my replies went along the lines of "Well, I did/had that as a kid, but have learned to keep it in check". Even though I'm diagnosed fair and square as an aspie by not only a shrink, but by a shrink specializing in ASDs, I've learned to "fake it" almost all the way to the edge of "NT-land"...!

They always update that test. at leats I think they do. I go b the images questions and the large font that says aspie quiz.I'm going to go take it.

Thank you for filling out this questionnaire.

But I always get confused with the ones and twos and 0's and such.

OMG! I'm more aspie than I was a year ago! You guys must be rubbin' off on me!

(Does it seem odd when "on" and "off" are consecutive in a sentence? The weather man says "This front will move on off to the east." Can't he say "move on to" or "move off to"?)

Mind that I was actually diagnosed by Dr Attwood himself, and I doubt he would get many wrong.

Thats exactlly the same one in a different thread

I remeber getting 177/200 for Asby score and the amusing thing was i was "Above average" on the seperation bits all the way down in the report.

129/200...hmmm...this is getting boring.

Here's the comments I sent, what do you think?

Have you experienced stronger than normal attachments to certain people?
---How would I know what is “normal” or what is “stronger”???

Are you often surprised what people's motives are ?
---I am often surprised, but much more often I am puzzled by their motives.

Do you tend to shut down or have a meltdown when stressed or overwhelmed?
---These are two very different questions.
Most AS “shut down” [withdraw either emotionally or physically] when stressed or overwhelmed. This is a mostly uneventful (for others) retreat.
A “meltdown”, as near as I can fathom, is a histrionic display of angst and rage. I suspect it originates largely from a sense of frustration. It seems to be reported more frequently among younger individuals and by those who self diagnose AS.

Do tend to do everything worth doing, more perfect than really needed?
---This is not a sentence. Even with the addition of a subject (you) and deletion of the comma it is poorly written. Your use of “perfect” is basically correct but betrays the writer’s youth and lack of formal education. Stick to the adverbial form “perfectly.” Similarly the word “tend” is awkward, try “tendency.” The partial use of the proverb: “everything worth doing…[is worth doing right”] refocuses the reader and tempts him to complete the phrase and thereby diverts him from the rhetorical field; this clutter should be avoided for it could taint the response.
Suggested rewrite: Do you have a tendency to complete worthwhile tasks more perfectly than necessary?

Do you clench your fists when angry?
---No, but I grit my teeth.

Do people sometimes think you are smiling at the wrong occasion?
---Not often, but people often mistake me for angry when I’m deeply involved in studying something alone.

Do you find it natural to wave or say 'hi' when you meet people?
---A minor point, people in the SE US say ‘Hey’ not ‘hi.” They usually wave at acquaintances and say ‘Hey’ (usually followed by a person’s front name) when greeting friends or when introduced to someone.

-------------------

You might want to add some questions about handwriting. This is a motor skill and I suspect most AS have a difficult time with it (I gave up and have been printing my whole life). How much pressure (downward force) an individual uses when writing may be significant.

You have a lot of “mystical” questions but have completely overlooked the most common: Magical Thinking. It’s the belief that two unrelated events are connected. For example someone believes (temporarily): “If I win this game of solitaire I’m now playing I’ll get the job I applied for yesterday.” Everyone does this to some extent and it indicates a playfulness of mind but it is also an indicator of mild OCD.

Keep up the good work,
