The Autism Spectrum Quotient - Page 4

32 in medium version

In bad version it would probably be another +5 points.

Scored a 24, which is troubling as I had thought my score would have been lower.

Uberfuhrer · 07-06-2008, 02:34 PM

I scored 36.

26.

31. I'm feeling pretty good about myself compared to many of the other tests on here. I've definitely developed some weird habits, though.

You concisely summed up my situation. Overall I am "normal" but I do have a number of "odd" tendencies.

I think mine are more OCD-like and isolation induced than autism related.

I'll pick a shape in my mind, say an 8, and then will have to keep going through that shape with my eyeballs or body (minute movements, unnoticeable to others around). It used to keep me awake at night. It's the same with a circle: trying to make it so small that becomes a dot. I think that's actually impossible (which is very frustrating and wastes a lot of time).

The worst is the complete lack of emotional connection to music and film. That's something that's certainly developed. Where I'll look at little details and completely miss the big picture; the opposite of what I once was.

Interesting ... sometimes I cannot stop thinking of a particular word, lyric or short phrase. It keeps looping around in my mind. But that usually occurs only when I am stressed or very tired (which, come to think of it, is a form of stress ...)

Also, before I saw the movie Elektra i thought the fact that I tend to count the number of things that I put on a shelf, in a draw, etc was normal. Apparently it is not ...

24 for me.

Haphazard · 07-09-2008, 05:37 PM

I got a 13.

...

I guess I'm unusual around here.

There was a lot of stuff on fiction and imaginary things. I'm very good with imagination stuff. So I guess that's why I scored low?
