설명

Evaluate your risk of Autism Spectrum Disorder with a validated screening questionnaire.

Autism Spectrum Disorder is a range of conditions all characterized by difficulties with social, restricted interests, and repetitive patterns of behavior. While it is typically diagnosed in childhood, a diagnosis could be delayed until adulthood - especially for those with high functioning autism.

If you have had lifelong difficulties understanding other people's feelings, maintain peculiar hobbies, difficulty with social interaction, stick to a rigid schedule, or are really good at specific subjects - you may have undiagnosed Autism Spectrum Disorder.

Disclaimer: This test is NOT a diagnostic test. A diagnosis can only be provided by a qualified healthcare professional. Please consult a physician or mental health professional if you are concerned about your mental health.

This test features questions and answers from the Ritvo Autism Asperger Diagnotic Scale-Revised (RAADS-R) test, an examination used to determine traits commonly found in Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD). The actual RAADS-R test is much longer and will provide a different score.

While this is not a definitive test for ASD (no single test is), it can be a good means to start a conversation with your clinician or therapist to see about getting diagnosed, and some psychiatrists and psychologists use this as part of a test battery for their patients. It was the RAADS-R which got me researching ASD and realizing I was autistic, especially since I scored 192 points.

Overall, the test on this app is valid, though rather abbreviated. I recommend it.

Free and Helpful

I like that it provided options for the way I feel grown and how I felt as a kid. In many questions it didn’t make a difference but in some it did and I found that interesting.

Seems a bit predatory - I’m actually autistic

It’s just the RAADs test you can find anywhere. I realize it’s a free app, but it then redirects you to their paid journal CBT app (which I don’t have a big problem with) and the better help website. I haven’t tried their other app, but why better help? People wondering whether or not they’re autistic are very vulnerable and better help has had some controversy around them. I would recommend people to find an actual therapist or psychologist and give them directions on how to do so.
