Screening Tests

Not sure where to start? These free, screening tools can help you explore whether ADHD, Autism, AuDHD, or related traits like alexithymia and demand avoidance might be part of your story. Each test takes just a few minutes and gives you an instant, private snapshot of your results. They're not a diagnosis, but they can be a helpful first step toward understanding yourself better and deciding whether to seek a professional assessment.

ADHD Screening Tests

These tools help you explore whether ADHD might explain lifelong struggles with focus, restlessness, and follow-through.

Autism Screening Tests

Explore autistic traits the way they really show up in adults, including social masking and the often-overlooked female profile.

The Aspie
Test

Also known as the Aspie Quiz, this popular 119-question tool compares your neurotypical and autistic traits side by side, covering social interaction, sensory sensitivity, and special interests. It's a great starting point if you relate to a lot of autistic experiences and want a fuller picture.

GQ-ASC Scale
for Adult Women

The Girls Questionnaire for Autism Spectrum Condition (GQ-ASC) was designed to capture how autism can present differently in women and girls, including masking and camouflaging. This 21-question version, adapted for adult women, can highlight traits that other, male-normed screening tools often miss.

CAT-Q
Camouflaging
Autistic
Traits
Questionnaire

Many autistic adults learn to mask or camouflage their traits to fit in socially, often at a high personal cost. The CAT-Q measures how much energy you put into compensating, masking, and assimilating in social situations, helping explain burnout and the hidden effort behind appearing "fine."

AuDHD Screening Test

A large portion of neurodivergent individuals have AuDHD, which is when you have both ADHD and Autism traits. See if you exhibit both with the screening test below.

The AuDHD
Screening
Test

Autism and ADHD frequently co-occur, and the overlap can make either one harder to spot on its own. This 16-question tool looks at traits from both conditions together, offering a useful first step if generic ADHD or autism tests haven't quite fit.

Common Symptom Screening Tests

These tools explore the traits that so often travel alongside ADHD and autism, from OCD, demand avoidance, dyslexia to interoception issues.

Monotropism
Questionnaire

Monotropism describes how autistic minds often focus deeply on one interest or task at a time. This questionnaire explores how strongly you relate to that single-channel style of attention, offering a helpful lens for understanding focus, hyperfocus, and difficulty switching tasks.

OCD
Screening Test

The OCI-R is a research-backed 18-question tool that screens for obsessive-compulsive symptoms such as checking, washing, ordering, and intrusive thoughts, giving you an instant score based on the past month. It's a quick way to check whether OCD traits might be worth exploring further with a professional.

Demand
Avoidance
Questionnarie

This 26-question tool screens for Pathological (or Persistent) Demand Avoidance, a profile where everyday requests and expectations trigger intense anxiety and avoidance. It's especially useful for autistic adults whose avoidance patterns haven't been explained by other traits.

Adult Dyslexia
Checklist

Dyslexia is often diagnosed in childhood, but many adults go through life without ever being screened. This checklist walks through common reading, writing, and organisational difficulties associated with dyslexia, offering a simple way to see if further investigation is worthwhile.

Interoceptive
Awareness
Assessment

Interoception is your ability to notice internal body signals like hunger, pain, or emotions, and it's often experienced differently by autistic and ADHD adults. This 37-question assessment explores how easily you notice and interpret those signals, shedding light on emotional regulation and body awareness.

Eating Attitudes Test

The Eating Attitudes Test screens for eating disorder risk through 32 questions covering dieting behaviour, food preoccupation, weight concerns and behaviours like bingeing or purging. This free tool works best for restriction and body-image-driven patterns — it can miss sensory or interest-based eating differences like ARFID, so a low score doesn't rule out needing support.

Scale

Perth Alexithymia
Questionnaire

The Perth Alexithymia Questionnaire takes a more detailed look at alexithymia, separating out difficulties with positive versus negative emotions across 24 questions. It offers a more nuanced picture than shorter alexithymia scales.

Alexithymia
Questionnaire

This 37-question tool offers another way to explore alexithymia, covering how you experience, process, and express emotion in daily life. It's a useful complement to the other alexithymia scales on this page for spotting consistent patterns worth discussing with a professional.
