About the AQ-10

The Autism Quotient-10 (AQ-10) is a brief screening tool developed from the longer 50-item Autism Spectrum Quotient. It was designed to help identify adults who may benefit from a formal diagnostic assessment for autism spectrum conditions.

Interpreting Your Results

In clinical settings, a score of 6 or higher is generally considered a positive screen that may warrant further assessment. However, this screening tool is not diagnostic on its own.

Important Considerations

  • The AQ-10 is a screening tool, not a diagnostic test.
  • A high score does not necessarily mean you have autism.
  • A low score does not rule out autism.
  • Only qualified healthcare professionals can diagnose autism spectrum conditions.
  • Autism is a complex and diverse neurological difference that affects people in many different ways.

If you have concerns about your mental health or neurodevelopmental differences, please consult with a qualified healthcare professional.
