Environment got more and more demanding through college for me and at some point my coping strategies just didn't do it anymore. I got depressed and anxious. I am gonna try to build new coping strategies though. I am somewhat positive. Many people with autism report positive development with social interactions and other aspects into late adulthood.

Yeah, I felt a lot like that earlier, and I am majoring in math. I like pure math & logic with a lot of abstractions. Also interested in the philosophy of math & logic. I am starting to like numbers a bit more now though, I think I was put off numbers by the mind numbing focus on calculation and rote methods in the public school system. Even most undergrad courses in math major was a bit dull to me. I now appreciate that quantification is the fundamental property of all mathematics that unites all the fields. I believe that attempts at removing quantification from mathematics have yielded a lot of interesting new mathematical fields. I believe no one has succeeded. Maybe /sci can prove me wrong? I really want to make MATH v.2. Do we have it? Is it just everything that is not math?

It's too short to be mean much. Try to take RAADS-R if you're concerned, it has more questions. Or read about ASD in DSM V. Or even better, talk to a therapist. Actually, sensory issues are quite a defining feature of autism. Are you debilitatingly disturbed by stimuli that most seem to ignore?

Diagnosed as little kid. Is autism even really a thing though? It seems like a diagnosis for a set of personality traits. Different personalities tend to face different challenges and obstacles in the world, but if you can function in society then I'd define you as not having a disorder.

In fact, being unable to function in society is probably a better definition for a disorder than whatever cluster of traits this test measures.

I can be at times, though it varies on the stimulus. Thanks for the advice anon, I'll look into it. I just always though I was extremely introverted. I've been treated for depression and anxiety in the past and Ive always had a difficult time with social interaction and prefer to be by myself much of the time. I'm happy I have a profession where I interact very little with people I'm unfamiliar with.
A good friend mentioned some time ago that she though I was somwhere on the spectrum.

Not sure, I think it is very personal and differs from person to person. If you don't get the diagnosis it could be nice to have it ruled out. If you get the diagnosis it could be both good and bad. If you are in need of social benefits, then it would be easier to acquire it with a diagnosis. A diagnosis could also make it easier to treat stuff like depression and anxiety, at least that is what my therapist argued when she wanted to screen me. I was refusing because I didn't think it was relevant for me, and I am still not sure if I did the right decision about going through with it. It could change your identity, start viewing yourself in a different manner which could lead to some undesirable outcomes. That was partially what I was afraid of, and still is.

Yes, I agree, for those who understand and care about numbers. A lot of autistics don't care about numbers though, but have repetitive traits in other domains. It is also a point that numbers is of technical and concrete nature, which is characteristics often said to be enjoyed by autistics. Temple Grandin has done some work in trying to identify how autistic people think. She came up with three main categories.

- VISUAL THINKERS (thinks in concrete pictures and often love art)
- MUSIC AND MATH THINKERS (thinks in patterns, kind of like an abstract version of visual thinkers)
- VERBAL LOGIC THINKERS (interested in lists, numbers, facts and details of subjects/things , may be good at learning new languages)

So I would speculate that verbal/logic thinkers are the most likely to be purely interested in numbers, then music/math thinkers, and then the visual thinkers as the least interested in numbers.

>arithmetic is not math
I agree. It is common to do in math though, but it is far from all we do. We do arithmetic on numbers, and we do abstract arithmetic on more abstract structures that often are enumerated. We also do a lot of other stuff.

Prima facie that can't be true. We have a much greater variance in intelligence than neurotypicals. For example, measured IQ in aspie groups has a standard deviation that is over 25 points (compared to around 15 points for 'normal' people).
Since most genes that influence IQ have an additive effect (this is in fact true of polygenic traits in general, not just intelligence), were autism caused by a loss of function of genes that influence intelligence, you would expect people with autism to have a smaller variance in IQ.

This also seems to be true within the same individual. Temple Grandin states that "People with autism and Asperger's are specialist thinkers. They are good at one thing and bad at other things. "

Furthermore

"Michelle Dawson, a woman with autism, has teamed up with Laurent Mottron, a researcher in Canada, to show that autistic intelligence goes beyond just rote memorization. Instead of using just the Wechsler IQ tests, they tested both normal and autistic children with Raven's Progressive Matrices (Dawson et al. 2007). In this test, the person is shown complicated patterns and he/she has to choose the pattern that will complete a series of patterns. Dawson and colleagues found that the IQ scores for the autistic children were 30-70 percentile points higher on the Raven's compared with the Wechsler Intelligence Scale for Children (WISC), while normal children have similar IQ scores when given the Raven's and the WISC. Scheuffgen et al. (2000) found that children with autism can show fast information processing despite poor measured IQ. These results show that autistic intelligence is truly different."

It's easy to read what questions would count as autistic points, but I still answered honestly.

I'm convinced 90% of ppl taking the test and getting greater than 30 are all memeing, or else 4chan truly is the hotbed of autism.

The prevalence of high functioning autism in the general population is about 1%. The prevalence is supposedly higher in STEM than in the general population, I wish I had numbers (maybe /sci can provide?). For now, let's make a low-tier assumption of 2%. And add another percent since autists probably prefer to communicate (read: argue) over the internet over IRL communication.

So we've got a initial moderate guesstimate of about 3% autists on /sci.

There are 46 that got a positive test. Let's assume 10 false positives. We're left with 36 autists. Which means we have had to have about 1000 people on sci viewing AND deciding to post in the thread for this to be probable. Anybody know a way to figure out the post/view ratio and number of views on a specific 4chan board?

Furthermore, I would speculate that those without autistic traits would suspect less that they have autism and be less prone to take the test and post, hence explaining most of the absence of neurotypical scores.

So what

Okay, so 66 unique posters and 36 with autism. Hence, around 50% of posters in this thread have autism. Do you think neurotypicals would tend to ignore this thread?

Okay, okay, let's make a new moderate guesstimate then, let's say 5% ASD in STEM, and 10% on unproductive STEM-related internet like 4chan/sci and reddit/math, reddit/physics etc..

So if 600 readers is right, we would have 60 autists reading this thread. And I think it sounds reasonable that 36 of those decided to take the test and post results, they probably have some justified suspicion.

Can anyone find source on percentage ASD in STEM though?

I'm INTP and I enjoy social situations. Not really talking to people, just listening to the thrum of conversation and feeling a warm atmosphere. People having a comfortable good time like that makes me have a good time. That isn't so say I don't actively go out of my way to avoid talking to people. I got a 28 and I've never been diagnosed with anything. But I always end up hanging out with people that do have autism. I find great glee in people acting socially inept and sometimes do so myself. I talk to myself constantly. I am not a productive member of society. I have an obscure set of hobbies such that finding friends is practically impossible, namely soldering and electronics, obscure and often english-dubbed anime with good OSTs, and minecraft.

In mild form, it seems like the perfect temperament for doing good stuff in math. Autism can worsen somewhat with age btw, maybe you just always were a bit autistic and have weakened your coping strategies.

>> No.9901529

>>9901516
>Autism can worsen somewhat with age
Yes and no. You simply change the way you deal with being so different from everyone around you. Sometime the change is for the better, sometime for the worse. Unless you're also clinically retarded, usually you'll get better at coping with "autism" as an adult. The worst part starts at puberty and lasts through your early 20s, since you're so out of sync with the rest of your peers.

(Double quotes for 'autism' because I refuse to believe it's a syndrome. It's just a rare phenotype.)

Why so harsh? Those with high functioning autism often have recurrent depression and crippling anxiety. A major depressive episode and/or increased anxiety can wreck your coping skills since they often are dependent on intellectual and conscious processing of social situations.

The line between high functioning and low functioning is not so clear. In these recurrent episodes, the high functioning autistic often becomes low functioning. I agree that low functioning autistics are truly fucked, but those that are close to the border between low and high may experience fluctuations and should not be put down by harsh and discouraging comments.
