No, no no. It isn't "empath" test. It's a "highly sensitive person" test, with questions spelled differently , simillar to that one http://hsperson.com/test/highly-sensitive-test/

My result is "Strong Empath".


Ah.

I guess I'm not an empath :lol:

It's just a user made quiz on a quiz making website. Why does anyone think this has any validity at all? Someone probably made it to validate their own biases.

Of course it's not valid- being an "empath" isn't even a disorder lol :D . I just was making a joke when I said I guess I'm not an empath :lol: .

I agree, most of the questions aren't actually about being an empath at all, they're traits of being introverted or sensory sensitivities. I answered "often" for the one about scratchy clothes and the one about caffeine. I also do not overeat - my body wouldn't let me do that even if I wanted to. I have a smaller appetite than most people, and if I try to eat more than my body wants, I can't swallow it. Also, I don't usually prefer one-on-one or small group interactions over large groups because in large groups, at least I can probably go unnoticed and not have to talk, and am less likely to stand out in any way. All the other questions, though, were almost (or entirely) always. I can't see my results because I refuse to put in my email address.

I scored "Strong Empath."

If you answered "yes" to almost all the questions, I would say that you, at least, have tendencies towards being on the Spectrum.

Here's one of my favourite Asperger's Women bloggers and her take on being very empathic yet not seeming so outwardly:

Much of what she writes would also be true for me.

My result is Strong Empath but I didn't answer a lot of those questions with empathy in mind.
This appears to be more of a test regarding ones anxiety and ability to interact with their environment.

As many of my critics will rush to point out, Strong Empath is a rather inaccurate statement.

this test isn't accurate at all, and goes against what I do in a typical day
