Take the test here - http://glennrowe.net/BaronCohen/AutismSpectrumQuotient/AutismSpectrumQuotient.aspx

Expecting some pretty high scores tbh. I got 27, which will probably be kinda low here :p

I like numbers/patterns (duh, I post on Atlas!) but am far too socially aware to get a higher number, I guess.

I got 24, likely for the same reasons. Smiley

Like all these stupid psychological tests, there are simply too many "that depends" answers for me to take it the level of seriousness it thinks it deserves.

95% of my answers were "somewhat" agree/disagree.

14, which seems awfully low for somebody who's a numbers/maps geek...but my interpersonal skills are pretty good when I choose to use them, and I'm pretty extroverted.  So meh

30. I'm not terribly surprised. When I get going, I can be very good in social situations, but, until then, I hate them. I have to warm up to other people.

13, lol. I agree with Gully Foyle about this. There were some where I just wasn't sure what to answer, like the museum/theater one. Depends on the context, really. In a social situation? Theater. Am I by myself? Museum.

I also think that I scored awfully low, like Alcon, for someone who is interested in electoral maps and how certain places voted, but then again I'm pretty extroverted. I'm definitely in the minority of people (personality-wise) who are interested in the subject.

32.  interested in patterns, can get very absorbed in things and also easily distracted by sights/sounds. sometimes flexibility is hard, but I usually manage alright with it, though I can have trouble understanding instructions.  I am also socially anxious and introverted but find people interesting and very aware of others' emotions.

"Those who begin coercive elimination of dissent soon find themselves exterminating dissenters. Compulsory unification of opinion achieves only the unanimity of the graveyard. . . But freedom to differ is not limited to things that do not matter much. That would be a mere shadow of freedom. The test of its substance is the right to differ as to things that touch the heart of the existing order."

Once sample size becomes a little larger, anybody wanna run a regression versus political matrix scores?

     15, though I must admit that I do find the apparent equivalence of introversion with Autism amusing in the utmost. I'd probably score 0 without the introversion questions in there.
