Its a spectrum right?
It's more like several spectra. They sometimes place them crossing each other in the middle so that it looks like a web.
Interesting visualisation.
Who made this? Is there a book or website? I would like to read more.
It's from an autism spectrum test, I believe that one is from IDR labs.
Yes. The test result returns a radar chart alike diagram. (I'm sceptical how a 50 question test can return such a detailed result. But that's just me. ) Thanks.

It looks different, at least currently. https://www.idrlabs.com/autism-spectrum/test.php
From the test:
Fuck
It's the visualized results of several autism tests. If I remember correctly, Autism Spectrum Quotient would provide something similar, but I can't say for sure. It's 50 items, so if I get some energy in the next few hours, I'll complete it to confirm the graph.
The test result gives me a scalar value. No radar chart.
Yep, I just took it and didn't get the graph either. I found one that does give the graph. I'm sure because I just completed it. It's the Aspie Quiz. Let me know if you were able to see the graph or not!
(I'm assuming this was a genuine question. If you're trying to make a point I'm afraid I missed it 🤷)
Yes, it's a spectrum. Autistic people are as a varied a group as any other, and you'll see different traits in different individuals, or even in the same individual at different stages of life or different settings.
And that means you can't point to one stereotyped feature and say that disqualifies you. Which was - ha ha! - the point of the video!
