    Do you have concerns that you or someone you know may have autism? Our quick autism
    test can help you determine if you, or someone you love, might need to see a mental health
    professional for diagnosis and treatment of autism or Asperger’s.

    Instructions: This is a screening measure to help you determine whether you might have an
    autism spectrum disorder that needs professional attention. This screening measure is not
    designed to make a diagnosis of an autism spectrum disorder or take the place of a
    professional diagnosis or consultation. Please take the time to fill out the below form as
    accurately, honestly and completely as possible. All of your responses are confidential. Please
    choose one of the following alternatives:

    This is true or describes me now and when I was young.


    This was true or describes me only now.
    This was true only when I was younger (16 years or younger).
    This was never true and never described me.

    I am a year old / /
    1. It is difficult for me to understand how other people are feeling when we are
    talking.

    touch
    my skin.

    3. It is very difficult for me to work and function in groups.

    4. It is difficult to figure out what other people expect of me.

    5. I often don’t know how to act in social situations.

    6. I can chat and make small talk with people.

    7. When I feel overwhelmed by my senses, I have to isolate myself to shut them


    down.

    8. How to make friends and socialize is a mystery to me.

    9. When talking to someone, I have a hard time telling when it is my turn to talk or to
    listen.

    10. Sometimes I have to cover my ears to block out painful noises (like vacuum
    cleaners or people talking too much or too loudly).

    11. It can be very hard to read someone’s face, hand, and body movements when we
    are talking.

    12. I focus on details rather than the overall idea.

    2/3
    13. I take things too literally, so I often miss what people are trying to say.

    14. I get extremely upset when the way I like to do things is suddenly changed.
