Thanks, I enjoyed seeing some new test I havn't tried yet.
I have been diagnosed with Aspergers today, but that didn't stop me from wanting to take some tests.
Summary of scores
8 = MacLean Screening Instrument for BPD
13 = HAD-scale(Anxiety)
15 = HAD-scale(Depression)
17 = Yale-Brown Obsessive-Compulsive Scale
42 = AQ
7 = EQ
155= RAADS-R
22 = ASSQ

They all basicly backs up the diagnosis.

hmmm 32

My scores were:

Aspie: 95 of 200
Neurotypical: 123 of 200
You seem to have both Aspie and neurotypical traits

I took it once before and I looked even more neurotypical then.

Hi, everyone! Let me put my two cents in. I took this test and scored 106 out of 200 for aspie- traits and 98 out of 200 for neuro-typical traits. This is just one online test. It is very limited. Let me explain, some people may not interpret the questions the same way and or they have a poor idea of how they actually behave. It would be helpful to have some feedback or to have someone avaliable to ask questions regarding certain individual test questions. I really didn't have much confidence in the answers that I gave. I know and am still learning how people in general act and their motives. This is not so I can "ape" them, but that I just find it very valuable to know how people tick. My understanding of people isn't the same as an NT's understanding. I notice patterns and I remember and comprehend concepts, but I don't really personally experience life the same way, therefore, don't truly understand people. Socially, most of the time I'm clueless. I stay out of those situations, in others if I'm in "business mode" and focus on people and group interaction in a goal orientated structured and focused way. I then believe I am able to "read" people quite well. I may over-rate my ability to read people, since there is no way to test my accuracy.

Maybe scores such as mine are skewed by learned adaptive thinking and behavior more than true measurement of asperger traits.

This is a well developed tool and may statisticaly within a certain standard error be an accurate predictor or confirmation of the many traits measured and in total the likelyhood of having Aspergers. But to what extent of accuracy? Who knows really. Judging ones own scores and different weighted levels of test result traits is highly subjective. Although it may feel right on indicates the open endedness of the test. Not saying the test is bad, but that tests are limited and must have enough generalizations to capture and weight in this case many different traits.

Just remember everyone though this is one test and only a tool it may be amazinging accurate for some somewhat accurate for many and miss the mark with others. How one interprets the questions and their own behavior is key here.

I'm diagnosed with Aspergers and don't believe self administered tests no matter how perfect can capture much. It's a good test as good as any multiple choice self administered test is, but everyone must keep this test and others tests and any individual's results in proper perspective.

I took the quiz but haven't gotten an answer. It keeps telling me I have missed matched answers for control questions...

So frustrating.

...........................................................

Scored a 40 on the AQ.... more is better right?

Do I spend the $2000 for the testing/assessments or do I just keep going without and just deal?......

Is it sad I got 192-200 for aspie?
11-200 nerotypical?

=)

Took it again and I got

AS 86
NT 122

Somethings wrong.....or I just rushed through it

There was a post on February 26th about hunting and a reply asking if the OP was implying that homo sapiens bred with neanderthal and that some would take offense to that.

There is a TED talk (love those!) about that very topic that you might find interesting.
It's under the Ancient Clues section of TED on Netflix. It's given by Svante Paabo and it's called DNA Clues to Our Inner Neanderthal.

While reading the hunting post from that day I couldn't help but laugh at all of the traits that I have that are on that list. As a child I used to try and trap our cat in a laundry basket propped up on a ruler with a string attached that I could pull from a hide. I built my own "dens" from couch pillows and blankets. I sniff my husband every chance I get and tell him how good he smells, no cologne please, yuck. Scents are very important to me. I have dog hearing and weirdly strong hands...
Seems like everything I read about Aspergers explains something that always made me wonder why I was so different or odd. Feels good.

Hi I got recently interested in Asperger's for various reasons. I did the test for pure curiosity.

AS 44
NT 163

I must say there were some questions I couldn't find a proper answer. Some of these 'social questions" mostly. The answer that would be the best would be like "I know how to behave and it is easy, but I don't realy like it and I find it unnecessary". But most probably it's because I don't like all these conventions.

The reason I got interested in Asperger's is my brother. He's five and we started wondering if he might have some syndroms, or is it just my Mum's suspictions. She is trying to find an answer why is he behaving like he sometimes does. He's very talkative and there is never a problem when we visit friends or so, but in his first year in nursery school he prefered to play on his own. He's very skille in languages, he learns quickly. As for strange hobbies he loves tall buildings. We have two in our city and he always looks for them, he made us check how tall they are, I counted windows for him once etc... What alarmed my Mum <and again, I have no idea how much of this is just her making theories where they are not needed> is that he sometimes becomes histerical if something isn't done in the order it usually is. Like preparing supper - she did it in another order and he was crying. It happens sometimes with other things like that and as we don't know what to do to stop these cries <he's five after all, he shouldn't be crying over such trivials>, we started reading about possible reasons and mild Asperger's seemed to be one of them. I've already read some of the available articles and quizes just to see what should I pay attention for, but for now it has lead me to nowhere. Oh, and sorry for mistakes, English is not my fisrt language and I'm typing in a hurry.

This is the score I got on the quiz. I am a bit freaked out by this. I was expecting I would just come out as an introverted NT. I know the test is not the same as a doctors diagnosis, but is it possible to have Asperger's without the common compulsive and/or hunting aspects? I did score slightly lower on those two sections, but high on the other four.

Any insight is appreciated.

The compulsive aspects can vary and the 'hunting' category doesn't mean much at all. The author of the test admits it checks more for things like dyslexia than AS.

My brother has Aspergers. I always think i am like him. He was originally diagnosed as ADHD but then diagnosed again when he got older. I dont think aspies were really recognized when he was younger?

Great test. It's hard to answer though as my answers would have scores much higher as a child. Over the years I learned alot and worked hard to overcome. I think that is their point though. They enourage taking the test over time repeatedly. I think they are expecting scores to change. Scores not a surprise 133.
I personally hate labels. Even the ethnic choice did not fit for me and I dislike putting down random answers. So for me, I use information as a personal tool. I want to be judged by people based on what the see and think they know, not a label. I have discovered labels blind people to the person in front of them.
It is useful to me as I have learned there are many non traditional ways to help "disorganized brain physiology". It does not mean no medication. But if you have certain symptoms like self harm, depression, thoughts of harming others, OCD, etc those certain issues are best handled through a psychiatrist, meds, and counselling.
But social issues, coordination, attention, etc, take work but can be improved. Painfully slow progress, but over time, I am now more in tune with what tunes people out. There is a generation wrapped in electronic devices and social media increasingly isolated. ( this forum is good though and decreases isolation, so I like it) Compared to many, I now seem social.

They also need to fix one question as its a choice -not yes/ no. Not sure if it's deliberate as they sometimesut things in to keep people honest.
