Quick Autism Screening
Ten questions about how you process social information, sensory input, and patterns. Takes about 5 minutes.
The AQ-10 is a shortened version of the Autism Spectrum Quotient developed by Allison, Auyeung, and Baron-Cohen at the Autism Research Centre, University of Cambridge. It is the most widely used brief autism screening tool in clinical practice.
A score of 6 or above indicates that a comprehensive evaluation for autism is warranted. This is a screening tool, not a diagnosis.

The AQ-10 was developed at the Autism Research Centre, University of Cambridge, and is recommended by NICE (National Institute for Health and Care Excellence) as a first-stage screening tool for adults. It has been validated across multiple populations.
A positive screen (score ≥ 6) does not mean you are autistic. It means further evaluation is clinically indicated. Similarly, a negative screen does not rule out autism, particularly in individuals who mask their traits. If you suspect masking, the CAT-Q assessment can help clarify.
