That quiz sounds scary.

The questions were not really in depth nor were there enough.

lost girl. this is a short test, but it's based on the factors docs use when they diagnose AS:

I think its hard to answer some of these questions objectively, e.g. unless people say I don't know if I engage in social give and take appropriately or not.

The test seems very tricky.
- If you mark speech delay it will consider you to be non-Asperger, without a warning on other kinds of autism.
- To questions like "To what extent have you dated the opposite sex?" what means always? to have been all your life in a date?
- And about 7 "How often do you spontaneously share interests, achievements or opinions with others?". With Asperger should be common to speak about obsessions, but it is counted negatively.

I haz discovered the flaw in this test:
Items (iii), (iv),(v) and (vi)
are NOT included!

(III) The client finds that he has serious social problems with both his personal and professional life
This is ME!
And it's another damning inditement of the way we are not only NOT treated
but NOT included in the spectrum!

I will conclude this rant with a musical number :

People with Asperger's Syndrome (AS) tend to have normal to above-normal intelligence (as measured by IQ tests). They tend to exhibit what some call the "Walking Dictionary Syndrome" - a non-stop flood of words about their obsessions or knowledge.

The table below provides a simplified version of the DSM-IV definition, used by professionals to diagnose disorders.

To make a rough assessment of whether a person has Asperger's Syndrome or not, tick the box under "ANS" if your client matches the description.

Note: If you are diagnosing an adult client, it is best to use his behavior as a young child for this test. He may learnt to cope through experience and may not fulfill the diagnostic criteria any more.

Criteria ANS
I. The client has obvious and consistent problems with social interactions, as described by at least 2 of the following:

A
Does not use body language when interacting (e.g. no eye contact, no change of facial expression, maintains a rigid body posture)


B
Does not develop relationships like others of his same age-group (e.g. a student makes friends with his teachers but not his classmates)


C
Lack of spontaneous emotional expression and sharing with others (e.g. does not point at objects; does not play with, touch, and chit-chat with others by his own initiative)


D Lack of social or emotional playing (e.g. preferring to be alone, not participating in social games, or reluctantly involving others only as tools or "mechanical" aids)



II. The client keeps repeating certain limited activities or pursuing certain specialized interests, described by at least one of the following:

A
Constant and persistent behavior that cannot be explained (e.g. keeps counting coins, watching bottle cap move, or watching the same video clip again and again)


B
Insistence on following specific, useless routines and rituals (e.g. must eat the same food prepared the same way in the same way; must always go to school on the same time along the same route doing the same things)


C
Keeps making the same useless movement without reason (e.g. hand or finger flapping or twisting, or complex whole-body movements)


D Obsession with certain parts of objects (e.g. keeps playing with wheels of a truck or fan propeller)


(III) The client finds that he has serious social problems with both his personal and professional life


(IV) The client learns to speak at about the same time as most children (e.g. single words used by age 2 years, communicative phrases used by age 3 years)

(V) Other than difficulties with social interaction, the client has no other problems developing his other mental abilities (e.g. being curious about the environment)

(VI) The client does not suffer from another specific Pervasive Developmental Disorder or Schizophrenia

Pretty basic test.. I'm not sure it takes in enough factors even to make the wooly statements it does.

Yeah, see I marked the speech question as sometimes I think but I wasn't thinking in terms of speech delay. I was rather thinking in terms of speech problems. I learned how to talk at a normal age, actually probably earlier than average I think. It's just my speech is a bit weird. I think I put sometimes or often or something like that for the opposite sex.

I posted this in another post yesterday~

I'm almost positive I have AS & those here who've read alot of my post would think I likely do as well. I also know how to take test. Considering that I got a negative score; the logical consusion is that the quiz/test ain't rite
