How often do common autism traits show up for you?
28 statements about social cues, routines, the senses and deep interests in everyday life. Your answers give a score in four trait areas often linked with autism and neurodivergence. It is not a diagnosis.
28 statements, no time limit
Before you start
Take the test somewhere quiet where you won't be interrupted.
- Tap one of five answers for each statement. There are no right or wrong answers.
- Answer for how you usually are, not how you would like to be. Your first reaction is usually best.
- You can go back to check or change an answer. The last question asks your age group.
- There's no time limit, so take the time you need.

This is not a diagnosis or a medical test. It shows how often you notice some common traits in yourself, for self-reflection only. If these traits worry you or get in the way of your life, talk to a doctor or another qualified professional.
What you get a score for
- Reading social cues. How often unspoken rules, hints and small talk take conscious effort for you.
- Routine and predictability. How much you rely on familiar routines and how unsettling sudden changes feel.
- Sensory sensitivity. How strongly sounds, lights, textures and smells affect you.
- Deep interests and detail. How much you dive into favourite subjects and notice details others miss.
