AutismTest

iOS iPhone

Have you ever wondered if you, your child, or someone you know is on the Autism spectrum?

Now you can. This test was developed by S. Baron-Cohen, S. Wheelwright, R. Skinner, J. Martin and E. Clubley, (2001) at Cambridge University and is used in many places for online screening.

Although not a diagnostic tool, it is very accurate and can certainly be used as a guide line. Contacting a professional for further information is highly recommended however.

Paws4Roel is all about Autism as both myself and my son are Autistic. We would like to make the iPhone community more aware about Autism. Being Autistic is very special. Neurotypical (NT) people think and live along the linear, Autistics think and live in the quantum.

NOTE: In reply to some feedback left for AutismTest, I need to stress that AutismTest is NOT a definitive answer to having ASD. These tests have extensively been researched by the Autism Research Centre at Cambridge University and have shown that there is a clear link between the score of this test and an actual diagnosis. But again a high score doest NOT definitively suggest you have ASD.

Please remember that the AQ is not a diagnostic instrument, a high score on the AQ does not suggest that a diagnosis is warranted. It is purely a screening test. The test is NOT, as some reviewers suggest, out of date. The reviewers have not read the information on the AQ test and therefore have given a completely uninformative review.

Also have a look at "Five Little Monkeys" and "Old MacDonald" from LoeschWare. Their applications also support Autism Causes and are well worth looking at.

AutismTest is free. For more information about what we do, please visit our website.

Any feedback and support is much appreciated.
