Autism Blogger Attitude Quiz

2 Comments

There is immense diversity in attitudes towards autism, and towards blogging about autism. Are you part of the neurodiverse crowd, a curebie, a moderate, or a "meta-blogger"?

I created this quiz based on my experiences so far with autism bloggers and their attitudes. There is no science or such-like behind it, just little ol' me constructing a quiz one (semi) quiet afternoon.

Created by: Autism and Oughtisms

What is your age?
- Under 18 Years Old
- 18 to 24 Years Old
- 25 to 30 Years Old
- 31 to 40 Years Old
- 41 to 50 Years Old
- 51 to 60 Years Old
- Over 60 Years Old
What is your gender?
- Male
- Female

Can autism be cured?
- Yes, and the cure already exists
- Maybe, but if it can be, we don't have the cure yet
- No, autism is inherent to the person, without autism, there is no person
- That's a loaded question, what does "cure" even mean here?
If you could cure autism, would you?
- Yes, it is a disease that should be wiped out
- Perhaps, depending on the severity of the person affected
- No, it would remove the core of the person's identity
- Hypotheticals are often unhelpful, I refuse to answer
Is autism caused by vaccines?
- Yes, most or all of autism cases are caused by vaccines or their ingredients.
- Doubtful, but I don't feel confident enough to say yes or no; maybe sometimes it is.
- No. That hypothesis has been disproven many times.
- That question only pulls apart the autism community, we need to focus on treatment rather than cause
Who are the villains in the autism world?
- The high functioning autistic people who pretend to talk for the low-functioning.
- There are no real villains, just a lot of confused but well meaning variations in attitudes
- The parents, they don't understand their children and subject them to pointless treatments.
- People like you who produce quizzes like this that divide the community up.
- The quacks offering up unproven treatments.
Why are autism numbers growing?
- Because of growing toxins in the environment / vaccines / allergens.
- We're not sure, no doubt an array of factors at play; some social (such as awareness), some environmental
- The numbers aren't growing, so much as awareness and diagnostic criteria are changing. Autistic people are a naturally occuring set within society.
- It doesn't matter why. The fact is numbers are increasing, and we need to deal with the results of that fact.
Most autistic people are...
- intellectually disabled.
- ... I'm not sure, I just know my own child / relative / self. I wouldn't speculate about the intelligence of the others.
- of above average intelligence
- can't be categorized in regards to their intelligence; tests measuring IQ can't be readily applied to autistic people.
The heroes of the autism world, are
- the scientists.
- the parents.
- the autistic individuals.
- the people exposing vaccines as a cause.
Autism blogging is all about...
- raising awareness of how hard it is to live with autism.
- bringing together the autism community.
- sharing both the good and the bad of life with autism.
- exposing bad science and misinformation.
- sharing the joy and unique beauty of the autistic world.
Autistic children belong in what sort of schooling environment?
- Special Needs School, they have specific challenges that mainstream schools can't handle.
- Mainstream School, it is their right to have an inclusive education.
- It depends on the child - I think both schooling options are legitimate.
- Homeschooled, the parents know them best and there are insufficient resources to cope with their needs within the current schooling environment.
How would you feel about a test that could reliably identify an autistic child, in the womb?
- A horrible test that should never be invented and never used.
- That would save a lot of pain and suffering, it would be a significant and much needed medical break-through.
- I'll deal with this question if it ever arises in reality, for now it is a non-issue to me.
- I think it would be a good option, particularly for couples who already have autistic children and can't cope with another one.
- Autism does not come about until after birth, so such a test could not exist.
