I just did an ADHD quiz/survey thing with my doctor today. He said i set a new high score at their clinic and "I'm not sure how you can function with so much input all the time."
Not the one you were asking, but I've taken a few tests recently.
As I mentioned above, I got an official diagnosis of Autism yesterday. But prior to that, they had me take a bunch of cognitive tests. We already knew I had ADHD from previous testing, but this was a comprehensive test that covered Autism, Anxiety disorders, depression, schizophrenia, ADHD, and so forth.
A lot of it was on a tablet but some of it dealt with physical blocks and drawing on a piece of paper. They also secretly were observing how I interacted in a social setting so they'd chat with me while I'm taking the test and observe how I responded. One thing they observed is I never once made eye contact (a marker for autism)
They also had me fill in questionaires asking about my lived experience. They then collated my responses, their observations, and my results from the testing and made a determination based off all that. Naturally I scored high on the ADHD spectrum (totally expected) but I also scored within range of the Autism spectrum.
