This is one of a series of discussion posts based on questions from the AQ-10 autism test.

10. I find it difficult to work out people’s intentions.

  • Definitely Agree
  • Slightly Agree
  • Slightly Disagree
  • Definitely Disagree

Is this statement true for you? Can you think of any examples? Is it an easy or difficult question for you to answer?

You can take the full AQ-10 test here. Note this test is intended as a quick screener, and cannot diagnose or rule out any condition on its own.

I guess this one is about interpreting vague questions or demands?

It's not hard to work out normally - I just ask a ton of questions.

One trick that marks you as werid?

In honesty I should probably say "definitely agree" since I have to constantly ask people more questions than they are expecting, or be completely lost.
