    I see why psychology tests are considered quackery so much. Being anti-social, or just not interested in other people’s life is not being autistic.

    This test is repeatedly asking just two questions:

    1. Do you like numbers, the same way Hollywood likes to paint autistic people.
    2. Do you like talking to other people?

      A test like that can only ever be a first indication. If you score high on this, it doesn’t mean you’re autistic. It just means you might want to talk to a mental health professional.
