Online Apsergers Tests

What do people make of the online Asperger questionaire tests? Are there any that you see as credible? Not as a conclusive diagnostic tool but just a useful tool.

I found this one:

Does anyone know of any more and what do they think of the one above.

Cool

    I scored 58 which makes sence since in the report from my ADOS test  their were problems in every area you could imagine.

    That's impressive, given that it's impossible to score more than 50!

    But, I'm guessing you did a slightly different test, or they scored it differently - do you happen know where on the Channel 4 website it was?

    @Jon - 35 is definately within the 'indicative of being on the spectrum' range, but, as the site says it's not a diagnostic test, also I wouldn't worry about the meanings of any of the individual questions - all the questions have equal weight, so the answers you give to three or four of make very little difference to your 'score'.

    Oh, and, if you're interested, I've done this test numerous times, and last time I did it (just the other day) I 'scored' 45, iirc (though I seem to recall the first time I did it I scored lower, so maybe I'm becoming more autistic! Tongue out (though doing it again just now I scored 33!))
