 |
|
It's on the same site as those others:
http://www.queendom.com/tests/access_page/index.htm?idRegTest=1118
It'll be interesting to see how people do. I'd expect auties to do well, and maybe Aspies, too (how are Aspie spatial skills?). It doesn't give you an actual score, just tells you how you did compared to the average, probably because there are only ten questions.
I took three of those tests, the spatial one, the verbal one, and the EQ one. I have NLD, and here is how I did on the three:
EQ: 85 (18th percentile)
Verbal: 149 (99.96th percentile)
Spatial: "Your score on the test was much lower than average."
And there you go! Typical NLD profile! Excellent verbal, poor spatial, impaired EQ (although not as impaired as with AS). How did others do? As expected? |

As far as spatial goes I got:

Much lower than average. I've always been hopeless at spatial vision.

| I sprang for the full report, because I was curious what my actual score was- 67 (1st percentile). Well, I guess it could have been worse. After all, the lowest possible score is 55. Pretty bad, though. |

| I am 100% abysmal at these specific kind of abilities. I had to answer "I don't know" for all but one because I didn't have Clue 1 as to what even the hint of the correct answer could be. |

actually, spatial learning has to do with the hippocampus... and defects in this region of the brain are associated with autism
i think the tasks are specific though and im sure aspies/auties are good within their special talents...
but is one reason there is such a close connection to NVLDs... which have spatial issues

"Way to go! Your score on the test was well above average, meaning you have a very strong grasp of spatial skills."
Some of the problems really puzzled me though, was like 2-3 I didn't understand at all. |

I'm pretty good at spatial tests, If I can actually figure out what they are asking.
Many of these questions are just too vague...
I got average on this test.
I am good at picturing what will happen when you manipulate objects, and imaginging the missing parts of images and such. I am however terrible at working in a mirror, I just can't do it.

Actually, auties usually have relatively strong visual/spatial skills. Their performance IQ scores are usually higher than their verbal IQ scores as well. I think it is the opposite for Aspies though, just as it is for NLDers. |

| Wow! Your score on the test was the top of the charts, meaning you have an excellent repertoire of spatial skills. |
