"Empathy" survey

  53. [S]Eh. I'm just not as social as I could be.[/S]
  
  I've always been told that I am understanding, and I easily understand the differences in people's behaviours, so I can easily tell if somebody's not well or annoyed with something I did, and usually I'll interrupt and ask what I did or what's wrong. I tend to be very emotionally attached to my friends, and as soon as something's bothering them, it's bothering me just as much.
  
  I never say "I hate this" without thinking why it would be the way that it is that I hate it. I seldom ever say that I hate something, but I'll often say that I really don't like it, and my mind always tries to think about the flipside to any arguement before I try and vote for a side, so I have a lot of trouble choosing sides in a lot of situations.

  Not too suprised, pretty sure I scored in the low range last time I took this as well.

  I thought you'd score way higher than me.
  
  I have no idea what this test actually measures. I'm inclined to think it has to do with empathy, but isn't empathy itself.

  Your score: 23
  0 - 32 = low (most people with Asperger Syndrome or high-functioning autism score about 20)

  
  
  I'm pretty sure I have some syndrome, though never had tests. Idgaf anyways.
  I don't care about people I don't know. If I do, it's a little bit. On the contrary, I really care about my friend[s]s[/s] (only have one real friend I talk to...)

  well the survey is not really searching for possibility of autism
  the website does have a survey for specifically autism
  http://glennrowe.net/BaronCohen/AutismSpectrumQuotient/AutismSpectrumQuotient.aspx
  
  Anyways, isn't autism more dominated by the repetitive behavior rather than the social impairment
• Kingofrunes wrote on 2013-02-08 17:23
  Your score: 18
  
  I'm not a people person and am pretty egotistical most of the time. It's something I'm pretty unwilling to change as well.

  65, which I guess is good? Definitely describes me.
  
  Future Education major here, empathy is a requirement.

  I got a 20. Is there one to test dyslexia? Pretty sure I'm midly dyslexic or something along those lines.

  54. I'm above average, though just barely. It makes sense. Generally, I'm quiet and reserved, unless it's with closer friends. I don't tend to seek out people, with the exception of a select group.
