Multiple Choice Questions

I have always struggled with multiple choice questionnaires. Is this an Autistic Trait?

  • I prefer multiple choice questions where there is a clear, correct and factual answer among the options.

    The ones where I have to decide between variable options, none of which are clearly and logically correct, are more of a problem. The AQ autism questionnaire for example!

    I hated essays at school. There are just too many variables. What do I put in and what do I leave out? What order do things go? Then having to think about phrasing, wording, paragraphs and grammar etc. Too much when the topic could be tested by multiple choice.
