Let's Play AQ-10 • I like to collect information about categories of things - sh.itjust.works

This is one of a series of discussion posts based on questions from the AQ-10 autism test. ## 9. I like to collect information about categories of things. - 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 [https://embrace-autism.com/aq-10]. Note this test is intended as a quick screener, and cannot diagnose or rule out any condition on its own. — First post in this series [https://sh.itjust.works/post/9023136]

This question amuses me because if you was going to take it completely literally, which seems like a reasonable approach for someone that is autistic, then you would read this as do you collect information and store it in some way such as files on the computer or a database. Which no, I don’t do that. But I do like to learn about lots of different things.

It’s funny, both you and @[email protected] were careful to avoid over-literal interpretations (unlike me haha), but still you came to quite different understandings. You - “yes, I have a broad interest in learning”. Pancake - “yes, I am systematic with information”
