This is a questionnaire to measure autistic traits in adults.  This is from researchers at Cambridge University's Autism Research Centre.

Feel free to share your scores and discuss the test and the traits you may have in relation to autism/aspergers.

  • I scored a 30 which is above average.  Most people with Aspergers and HFA score 35 or higher.  :-}

  • I scored a 30, but what exactally does that mean? Is it saying that I am Autistic or something, or that I am not? Because I have always wondered if I was the one that gave my daughter Autsim, because I have always had a few traits of it through out my life. I have had a couple of people ask me when I was younger if I was Autistic and I would tell them no because my mom never acted like I had a problem, but me being an Adult now I see the traits of it in me and my Fiencee does too.

  • I scored 35. Which is interesting, because my dad says that if I had been evaluated when I was my daughters age that *I* would have been "somewhere" on the spectrum too. Thanks for the link....

  • I scored a 21, which would be on the high end of normal, although higher than average (17) for a woman.
