Re-doing the Aspie Quiz

I decided to redo the Aspie Quiz because I wanted to get a copy of the nice diagram that goes with it. My results were as follows;

Your Aspie score: 168 of 200
Your neurotypical (non-autistic) score: 33 of 200
You are very likely an Aspie

A tiny bit higher than last time (161), probably changes depending on mood.

Anyway, this is the picture I was after.

I was searching for some things on google and I came across this quiz.
Your Aspie score:153 of 200
Your neurotypical (non-autistic) score: 47 of 200.
You are very likely an Aspie
I've never had any sort of diagnosis or anything and no one has mentioned anything.
Very interesting. Thank you for posting it.

Thanks for the link and for posting your scores.

I recently took the Final Version 2 and my results were:

My Aspie Score: 158 of 200
My Neurotypical Score: 64 of 200
You are very likely an Aspie

I am a Mom of two boys on the autism spectrum. The oldest (10) has an AS diagnosis and the youngest (3) has an autism / ASD diagnosis.

I'm still awaiting "official" diagnosis but I know in my heart with 100% certainly that I'm an Aspie.

I'm not sure how to interpret the information I'm getting. I got 119/82 on this test and a 32 on the AQ test. I've read several of your posts and I keep thinking "Hey that sounds like me" but then you'll discuss other traits of aspies and it doesn't seem to fit. I have no trouble communicating with my circle of close friends, but I'm horrible with "small talk". I feel out of place with most groups. My hands are constantly in motion (stimming?). I do have a tendency to say things that upset people. I do get caught up in my interests, which my friends are tired of hearing about. I don't know what I'd do without everyone's favorite Time Lord. Things get chaotic if I don't follow a schedule, but I wouldn't say that I "meltdown".

Tony,

There's nothing to say that in order to have aspergers, you must display "ALL" of the symptoms.

In fact, the diagnostic criteria reads like a multiple choice question.. "any three of the following behaviours", etc.

I'm not even convinced that the diagnostic criteria is 100% right either. In some ways, the label of aspergers (or autism) is widening to encompass people not previously thought to be on the spectrum.

What number would most NT people get on this quiz?
Gavin Bollard said…
Hi Tony,

I can't remember quite what NTs get but I think it's significantly lower probably even below the hundreds.

There's a lot of detail about the quiz including detail on how Aspies versus Neurotypicals answer the questions;

I know this was posted back in '07, but I have been reading several of your blogs regarding Aspergers. For a long time, I was convinced that I have Depression or might be bi-polar. I did tons of research on those, and though I'm still sure I have one or the other, I'm placing all my money on Aspergers.

I took the quiz you linked and got 174. I have saved a PDF file. From reading your blog posts and several medical publications, I am convinced that I have this condition.

I only work part-time retail (which is an extremely grinding work environment for me, but the best I could get in this economy), and I don't have insurance. So I guess until I can put a few paychecks together, I'll be living with a self-diagnosis for a while.

But just having a name to go with what I thought was perhaps insanity or the like is wonderful.

Thanks so much for your blog. I found you on Google searching for Aspergers! :) If you have any ideas on what kinds of places give diagnoses, please consider making a blog post about that.

Cheers!

I’m non diagnosed and only recently came to turns that autism is a possibility, I thought maybe I had a few traits that were just more my personality than anything else but my score seems to be extremely high to a point where autism is likely definite to me, I got 186/200 ND and 20/200 NT
thank you for forums like this, I feel less afraid to get help

Aspie Myths - "He Won't Miss Me"

I apologise for the excessive "male-orientated" viewpoint in this post. I tried to keep it neutral but somehow, it just works better when explained from a male viewpoint. Here's a phrase that I've seen repeated throughout the comments on this blog on several occasions; "I know that he won't miss me when I'm gone because he's aspie" Today, we're going to (try to) bust that myth; Individuals I'll start off with a reminder that everyone is an individual. If all aspies were completely alike and predictible, they'd be a stereotype but they're not. Each is shaped by their background, their upbringing, their beliefs and their local customs. An aspie who grew up with loud abusive parents has a reasonable chance of becoming loud and abusive themselves because in some cases, that's all they know. That's how they think adults are supposed to behave. In other cases, aspies who grew up in those circumstances do a complete about-fa

Why Do Aspies Suddenly Back-Off in Relationships? (Part 1)

One of the most frequent questions I'm asked is why an aspie (or suspected aspie) suddenly goes "cold" and backs off on an otherwise good relationship. It's a difficult question and the answers would vary considerably from one person to another and would depend greatly on the circumstances. Nevertheless, I'll try to point out some possibilities. Negative Reasons I generally like to stay positive on this blog and assume that people are not necessarily "evil" but simply misguided. Unfortunately, I do have to acknowledge that there are some people out there who take advantage of others. I read a book a few years ago on "sociopaths in the workplace" and I was stunned by the figures. They suggested that sociopaths were so common that most workplaces (small business) had at least one or two. The fact is that there are lots of people out there who really feel very little for others and who are very manipulative. I'd like to say that aspies aren

Why do Aspies Suddenly Back Off in Relationships (Part 2)

In part one, we looked at the role that Change Resistance plays in causing aspies to suddenly go "cold" in otherwise good relationships. This time, I want to look at self esteem and depression; Self Esteem The aspie relationship with themselves is tedious at best. People with Asperger's commonly suffer from low self esteem. As discussed in earlier posts, this low self esteem often results from years of emotional turmoil resulting from their poor social skills. Aspies are often their own worst enemy. They can over analyze situations and responses in an effort to capture lost nonverbal communication. This often causes them to invent problems and to imagine replies. Everything made up by aspies will tend to be tainted with their own self image. This is one of reasons that people with Asperger's will sometimes decide that they are not good enough for their partner and that they must let them go. Sometimes, the aspie will develop a notion of chivalry or self-sacrific
