Ever wondered how actually autistic people answer the AQ test (or autistic quotient test)? In this video, I talk through my own answers to the test.

This week, Indie Andy and I decided to both take the AQ (autism quotient) test to see how good it is at accurately identifying autistic traits. I personally have a lot of criticisms of the test and some of the questions. As you can see in the video, a lot of them are open to wild interpretation, and I think that this is potentially missing a lot of autistic people in the screening process because of the somewhat outdated stereotypes of autism it perpetuates.

Interested to know what you guys think about the test as well!
