The Autism Spectrum Self-Test
With the Free Online Autism Spectrum Self-Test, you can get an initial assessment of whether you might exhibit traits of the Autism Spectrum.
This test is based on the well-known Autism-Spectrum Quotient (AQ) developed by Simon Baron-Cohen and his team at Cambridge. It simplifies the original four response options to just two, "Tend to Agree" and "Tend to Disagree", because the official test mainly distinguishes between agree and disagree. Please note this test is for self-assessment only and does not replace a professional diagnosis. A negative or positive result is not conclusive. For an accurate evaluation, consult a medical specialist.
Instructions
Questions: Read each question carefully. Note that some questions may be phrased positively and others negatively, which could affect your response. The questions have not been altered.
Answers: Indicate whether you tend to agree or tend to disagree.
Submit: Click "Submit".
Result: Your test result will be displayed directly below the questionnaire.
