Recently Kefka posted his results of what I know as "The Aspie quiz" and Uhane requested a link to it, so I have copied the link below (hope it works)

This test results in a 10 sided chart, showing how strong your atypical (autistic) and typical (neurotypical) traits are, which I find really interesting. For an example, here is my result:
This matches my my attention to detail, pattern recognition and special interests (high atypical talent) and my need for predictability and my hypersensitivity (high atypical perception). I have what is maybe an unusual communication score for someone on the spectrum, however this is an ability to interpret and display typical non verbal communication - not as I originally thought, being ok at conversation. (Verbal communication is in the talent section of the typical side of the graph)
I have a question about this test - does anyone know if it is used anywhere for formal diagnosis?
I took this test about 2 years ago, it seems to be fairly accurate, I have most probably changed slightly since then as I have discovered more of my true self and don’t mask as much.

Great to hear! I'm trying to work on masking less myself but it's difficult not to.
