Are there really accurate "autims quizzes"?
Hello,i saw that there are online "tests" that are supposed to determine if you should see a specialist about autism. In thos equizz, there are often questions about how you behave and interact with other people. I read carefully the questions and i did the test answering them honestly. I got a score of 33 despite not being autistic. I answerred that i preferred items or ideas to people, library to party(ina Library you can read and you have the control, in aparty you just dance or say empty things a lot, and i dont like parties because i feel helpless or that i dont fit in).
I also answered i liked doing the same things , but here too, many peoplelike having habits and like having things planned carefully.(to tell you the truth i have ocds so thats related)
I recognized how i live in many of the questions(findint it hard to make friends enjoying fictions a lot,not liking "social chitchats".)
But i felt the quizz could have applied to a question like "do i have social anxiety", am i a bit lonely or asocial,etc.
Did you ever tried those quizzes and got a high score without being autistic?I feela larger numberof those questions may apply to autism but also to other concepts.
