Autism-Spectrum Quotient

I just took an AQ test to measure my extent of autistic traits. The test is not a means for making a diagnosis but eighty percent of those diagnosed with autism or a related disorder scored 32 or higher. I scored a 26. [Link]

    Got a 12.

    Out of scope but I couldn’t find another way to contact you Mark, so I’ll make my request here. My apologies in advance.

    I live in Kuwait and I’ve got a couple of electronic items I’m trying to sell (3 to be precise) and I was wondering if you could post a link to my post in one of your posts (is that confusing?) seeing the huge readership you’ve got. I’ll give you the link if you’re cool with this as I wouldnt wanna abuse your comment section to advertise. Thanks in advance (irrespective of your response).

    i got 14. i guess 35+ means you are either really autistic or an emo sci-art fag with wannabe ADD that cheated on the test to seem so alternative.

    When the Lord closes the door somewhere he opens a window.
    If it’s any consolation to those with telephone number scores remember autism can come with special gifts & talents too ; thinking in numbers is only one such.
    Those that score on the lower side need to closely examine the trade-offs from having a ‘within normal limits’ score.

    I have Asperger’s and twice scored a 36.
