[NT] Systemizing Quotient and NTs

[Noamdofthehills]

is the OP is predicting that NTs will be more systemizing then empathizing?
in that case, they need to test for both. a high systemizing score doesn't mean squat unless there's an empathizing score to compare it with. those asperges kiddos have very high S and very low E. if both are high or low, then you're balanced. FDG might earn a higher empathizing score.

anyway i always score as highly/extremely systemizing, not on the raw score alone in which i get barely above the average for female at most (sometimes much less), but because my empathizing score is so damn low.
i'm not good at anything!

i always get "male brain" results...

Empathy Quotient


Your score: 19
0 - 32 = low (most people with Asperger Syndrome or high-functioning autism score about 20)
33 - 52 = average (most women score about 47 and most men score about 42)
53 - 63 is above average
64 - 80 is very high
80 is maximum



Hmm, 57 on systemizing, 19 for empathy.

Autism Spectrum Quotient

Your score: 25
0 - 10 = low
11 - 22 = average (most women score about 15 and most men score about 17)
23 - 31 = above average
32 - 50 is very high (most people with Asperger Syndrome or high-functioning autism score about 35)
50 is maximum

That is a hellbender, Cryptobranchus alleganiensis.

Hellbenders are one of the largest salamanders in the world, growing to over 2 feet long. Their cousins in China and Japan, the Chinese and Japanese giant salamanders, can grow to an enormous 5 to 6 feet long! Hellbenders are only found in the mountains and foothills of the eastern United States. They once thrived in thousands of pristine streams in the Ozark and Appalachian mountains, and throughout the Ohio River valley.

I got a 29.

I also got a 29 on emphathizing. This means that I'm probably just not good at anything.

the empathy test is biased against NTs.
It's sort of the nature of an NT to have an analytic side to what they do, and the test asks about behaviors rather than knowledge. + I don't think a rational being should ever say 'i'm totally good at reading people', as that's generally at least partially a delusion and simply cannot be said without some sort of reasonable degree of doubt.

or maybe it's meant to be asked in person. Empathy/group mentality would make ppl give more positive answers. (direct contact with a person, superego etc., notion of the specialist-judge (or equal)

 

[Polaris]

I'm not an NT (as will be abundantly clear in a second), but I scored 24 on systemizing and 47 for empathy.

I got 47 for empathy too.

Yeah, I don't get it either. If I can't empathize and I can't sympathize, what am I doing most of the time?

55 "and almost no women score in this range."

Luckily I am not most women.

42 on Empathy....average Woohoo!


And 20 on the autism spectrum


I may be systematic, but I am certainly not retarded.

Your score: 53
51 - 80 is very high (three times as many people with Asperger Syndrome score in this range, compared to typical men, and almost no women score in this range)

Empathy Quotient
Your score: 15
0 - 32 = low (most people with Asperger Syndrome or high-functioning autism score about 20)

Systemizing Quotient

1. Science types and engineers typically score high

2. Its loosely correlated with autistic spectrum

3. I'm curious if NTs in general score high


FYI, I scored a 41. However, if I adjust some of my "definitely" answers, I can get a 39.

My scores in summary:

41 Systemizing Quotient
12 Empathy Quotient
32 Autism Spectrum Quotient

...just...wow...

Yeah it was too depressing for me to even take the last test.

 

[Haphazard]

So my scores are:

Systemizing: 29
Empathizing: 29
Autism Spectrum: 23

It's strange how these numbers are all so close together even though the scales all 'expect' totally different ranges of numbers... weird.

 

[cascadeco]

39 on systemizing
49 on empathy
13 on autism spectrum

 

[nonsequitur]

51 on systemising, but I'm a scientist so it's unsurprising.
40 on empathy.
27 on autism spectrum.

 

[FDG]

Got 12 on the Autism Spectrum. Thank god, I was scared by my high systemizing score.

 

[EcK]

Autism Spectrum quotient:

Your score: 6
0 - 10 = low
11 - 22 = average (most women score about 15 and most men score about 17)
23 - 31 = above average
32 - 50 is very high (most people with Asperger Syndrome or high-functioning autism score about 35)
50 is maximum

I win again!

i got 27 from autism
