Autism Test: Am I Autistic? Free Screening & Neurodiversity Profile
Personality
Take this free online autism test to explore your social and sensory processing styles. Discover if your traits align with the Broad Autism Phenotype or the spectrum.
Have you ever felt like everyone else received a manual for social interaction that you somehow missed? For many adults, life can feel like a constant effort to decode "unwritten rules," manage overwhelming sensory environments, or hide their true selves to fit in. You might wonder why casual conversation feels exhausting, or why a sudden change in routine feels like a catastrophe while others simply shrug it off.
This Autism Test is designed to help you explore these experiences through the lens of neurodiversity. Instead of viewing your traits as "deficits," this assessment helps you map your unique processing style against established scientific frameworks. Whether you are looking for vocabulary to describe your struggles or considering a formal diagnosis, this screening tool is a safe, supportive first step toward self-discovery.
This assessment goes beyond a simple score; it provides a mirror for your internal experience.
Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) is not a single linear scale from "mild" to "severe." It is a complex constellation of traits affecting how a person perceives and socializes with the world. This test explores the concept of the "Broad Autism Phenotype," acknowledging that autistic traits exist on a continuum in the general population.
This assessment draws upon the dimensions established in authoritative screening tools such as the Autism-Spectrum Quotient (AQ) and the Ritvo Autism Asperger Diagnostic Scale-Revised (RAADS-R). It is calibrated to detect both clinical-level traits and the subtler "Broad Autism Phenotype" often found in undiagnosed adults.
We analyze your responses across four core domains:
The test consists of 24 carefully selected items. Most users complete it in approximately 5 to 8 minutes.
Tip: Answer based on your lifelong patterns, not just how you feel today. If you have learned to cope or "mask" a behavior, answer based on how it feels internally, not how you appear to others.
Each item is scored on a 7-point scale. We sum these values to place you in one of three likelihood bands. We also analyze your sub-scores to highlight whether your traits are primarily sensory, social, or structural.
This test is especially helpful if you:
Please consider seeking professional help instead if:
We don't just give you a number; we provide a narrative that contextualizes your experience. Your final result will categorize your traits into one of three standard profiles:
Neurotypical Range:
Your responses align with the majority of the population. You likely find social filtering and sensory processing relatively automatic.
Broad Autism Phenotype (BAP):
You may have moderate traits—a "cousin" to the spectrum. You likely have specific sensitivities or deep focus areas but may not experience significant impairment in daily functioning.
Significant Autistic Traits:
Your scoring pattern is consistent with individuals who have an autism diagnosis. This suggests a high likelihood that you are on the spectrum.
Your report also includes:
A high score does not change who you are; it explains how you are. Use this information to practice self-compassion. If you score in the high range, it doesn't mean you are "broken"—it means you are operating on a different system.
To ensure the accuracy and reliability of the concepts used in this test, we have referenced the following authoritative sources:
Your responses suggest you process the world in a way consistent with the neurotypical majority, finding social flow and sensory adaptability relatively easy.
You likely sit on the 'bridge' between neurotypical and autistic processing, sharing many sensitivities and deeper thinking styles without the full intensity of the spectrum.
Your processing style aligns strongly with the autistic spectrum, characterized by a deep need for routine, intense sensory experiences, and a unique, direct way of connecting.
