HFA & PDD-NOS

Post Reply New Topic

If your goal is to compile data, it occurs to me that it would be beneficial to ask these questions on other webboards as well, so the focus here doesn't skew responses as you're asking from a range of diagnoses, and most here (I'd hazard a guess) identify as Aspie (obviously) whether self-diagnosed or no, and selection bias isn't the best thing for compiling data. Perhaps a mental health discussion forum since the answers about the diagnoses you're questing about for fall medically in the DSM.

And I'd be interested in artistic, spatial skill's, writing ect. questionaire. Very Interested.

THE SURVEY

1. If you took the poll I mentioned previously, what was your selection? If you haven't done the poll, please answer here: If you had to rate your face recognition skills, would you say you were:

a) excellent
b) average
c) poor (or below average)
d) face blind

I would say my face recognition skills are between average and poor.

2. What's your age? 48

3. Are you male or female? Male

4. Currently diagnosed? No official diagnosis yet.

5. If you are diagnosed, what’s your precise diagnosis? Asperger’s? HFA? PDD-NOS? N/A

I've left a bunch of other posts elsewhere concerning how I came to my conclusions about myself:

Unknown, I am assuming yes since Ive still been known to have it sometimes.


Also, a little down the line, I may be wanting to collect some more information on other skills in relation to facial recognition (spatial skills, artistic abilities, writing, etc.). Let me know if you'd be interested and I'll mark you down for when the time comes.

Why not? Suppose it cant kill me.
