[ARCHIVED THREAD] - Autism test (Page 1 of 2)
Posted: 11/19/2016 3:16:42 AM EDT
My wife works in the medical field and researches autism. This is a test they use on adults to check for autism. She tells me about half of normal kids under 12 can solve it, and 96% of non-autistic adults with an IQ of 100 or greater can solve it in under 3 minutes, while only 13% of autistic adults can solve it at all. I figured I'd let you guys test yourselves

How does the test work? That's the best solution I could come up with. Otherwise it's impossible drawing separate lines for everything. |

Given I know people on the spectrum, and they were tested via actual batteries of questions and answers, and through seeing specialists, I feel like "if you can't draw this right you're dumb or autistic" isn't that stringent of a testing procedure. ETA- looking at OP's state indicated... I'm going to go out on a limb and guess they are not on the cutting edge of things where he's at. |

Suffer from Aspergers. Gave up after about 3 hours of solid trying. What is the solution? I can always get all but the very last connection. Can't go around otherwise it's blocked by another cable. Can't go above, can't go through, etc. Is there even a solution? A few people have tricked me by giving me literally impossible puzzles without a solution just to watch me attempt for a good 5 hours or so. EDIT: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Three_utilities_problem There's no solution. Thanks for wasting my time.  After reading, I just also realized you wouldn't have this problem in reality, as on paper you can't move in 3 dimensions. |
