Questionnaire on Asperger's Syndrome / autistic spectrum disorder - free self test/assessment .:. Psychotherapy & Counseling R.L. Fellner, Vienna & Thailand (Psychotherapist, Counselor, Sex Therapist)

The following questionnaire has been created by reknowned British psychiatrist Dr. Simon Baron-Cohen to assess symptoms of Asperger's Syndrome, which belongs to the lower range of Autism-Spectrum disorders. With his agreement I was the first one to publish a German translation of his test, but here's the English original for your convenience.
Note: this is a screening test, no diagnostic test - so it can't replace a professional psychological, medical or psychotherapeutic diagnosis that should really be done in person. A screening test intends to distinguish persons who require more detailed testing from such who don't require it, so that preventive or therapeutic measures can be taken.

The questionnaire consists of 50 questions and will take about 15 minutes to complete.
After completing the test, the results will be displayed (no fees involved).

Privacy is valued here. Your answers will be saved for statistical purposes, but without personal information. To prevent abuse of this questionnaire, your IP address will be recorded.
The assessment and its evaluation are are completely free.

Instructions and complementary notes

The results will be more accurate if you answer honestly.

please answer all questions and don't leave any of them unanswered -
a result will only be displayed if you answered the complete questionnaire.
please pay attention on the wording of the questions and try to answer as exact as possible. But once you understood the question, answer spontaneously and avoid minute-long pondering over the 'correct' answer.
