Your Aspie score: 101 of 200
Your neurotypical (non-autistic) score: 113 of 200
You seem to have both Aspie and neurotypical traits



No idea what any of this means, but my graph seems more rectangular than others. I also notice that there's a strong tendency to the lower left among the ones posted.

Ok, the basic:  if you have more traits that tend to the right, you are likely autistic/aspergers .
If you have more traits that tend to the left, you're "normal"

If you have traits that go in both directions (like me) then lord knows what that means.  I'll ask my wife if she ever puts the dang Wii down.

What's the significance of up/down? I don't know if I'd consider myself physical. I'm not uncoordinated and clumsy, but I'm not athletic, either.

no significance; just showing different traits. i.e someone might be neurotypical for "perception" but have autistic tendencies in talent, so the perception trait would be lower left, and talent would be upper right.

Not that kind of 'physical'. It is on the opposite side from 'intellectual'. Physical's a euphemism for 'meathead'.  =D

Interesting.



I wonder if there is any correlation 'tween Asperger's Syndrome and Myer's-Briggs personality types

That's me on a "good" day.  Where's Bogie?  I'm pretty sure he could make my results look a but more "normal".

You have answered inconsistently on too many control-questions

Awesome...

If I was going through primary school now I would be diagnosed as aspie, 20 years ago being socially awkward was just an accepted consequence of being very bright.

While growing up I came up with a tremendous number of scripts for social interaction and spent a huge amount of time studying conversational/comedic timing to the point that now I come off as simply a little odd - which is a helluva lot better than autistic. Thankfully I can make people laugh - and that goes a very long way in social interaction.

My wife, the professional, answered the same way and got the same response.  Strange indeed.

Your wife is a professional inconsistency?  Is her company hiring, or does she know of any other openings?



My old psych prof said that it isn't so much that some people are antisocial, it's just that a lot of people are annoying and only the ones considered antisocial are paying enough attention to notice.  I wonder how he'd scor on this test.

Meh
On two occasions, I have been asked [by members of Parliament], "Pray, Mr. Babbage, if you put into the machine wrong figures, will the right answers come out?" I am not able to rightly apprehend the kind of confusion of ideas that could provoke such a question.
