Other statements were too specific and didn't allow for different coping strategies, like "Sometimes I cover my ears to block out painful noises (like vacuum cleaners or people talking too much or too loudly)." I wouldn't cover my ears because that would be considered weird, but I would have to leave the room and find a quiet place.

This is why you are supposed to be accompanied by a specialist who can explain what the questions really mean. No matter how the questions are phrased some will seem unclear, especially to people on the autistic spectrum who often have trouble generalizing.

I agree but that is how the test was designed and I wanted to keep it as close to the original as possible.

well my score is 91, 4/53/10/24.

I dislike the subjectivity of such tests. Actually it makes me crazy. And I cannot believe people really take this seriously, even as a pre-diagnostics tool.

Humans are so freaking bad at interpreting and understanding randomness. Coupled with self-fullfillingprophecies and wishfull thinking (wishing to be aspie? did I wish my score was higher?)... there is no way you can get proper answers.

Take the questions in the sound category. In order to truly find out anything meaningfull whether or not you have a different hearing from 'normal' people, you'd have to set up at least a double blind study with 25 degrees of freedom and a satisfactory p value. Let alone compare child and adult situations.

I had to laugh reading that. It is such an Aspie response!

Obviously tests like this are subjective. The RAADS is supposed to be administered by someone who is trained to be able to help you with any questions you may find confusing or difficult to answer.

Additionally tests like this and the AQ are only screening tests. They are biased to screen out the obviously NT and that's about it. Even then practitioners are advised to use their own judgement in borderline cases. Accurate testing can only be done in person with a trained psychologist or psychiatrist.

Below are my test scores:

Total score = 207.0

Language = 19.0

Social relatedness = 96.0

Sensory/motor = 53.0

Circumscribedinterests = 39.0

It would appear that my scores are higher then average for females with ASD.
