I found this page by searching for "Can I be an associative thinker without being autistic". All I knew before starting the quiz was that I was on an autistic forum, so I'm very impressed by my results heavy leaning towards C - Associative Visual Thinker.

Simon Barron-Cohen needs replacing, you should apply for the job.

 

[LucyPurrs]

I'm an NT. I got:
no As
2 Bs
4Cs and 4Ds
And I have a lot of common sense and am not a visual thinker, at least I don't think I am. I don't think D describes me so am confused. Guess I'll take the other test and see what I get.

 

[JB2018]

I got 2 for A, B, and D; 4 for C
Associative Visual Thinker -- your description is pretty close to describing my style of figuring things out! And I always remember numbers by their shapes on a phone keypad -- like to think I have some common sense, but that probably just comes from learning from mistakes

A's - Incremental Visual Thinker.
Your brain thinks in a visual manner similar to watching a slide show. When learning, you are most interested in the outcome or results. Because you easily reason by comparing the results of past experiences with the current situation, you are adept at predicting the outcome of a series of events.
You strengths include a decent amount of common sense and an ability to understand common situations. Your weakness is that your communication ability is hindered since you must translate your visual thoughts into words.

(The following quiz I've created as an attempt to help me figure out myself and others. It is based on my own developing theories and should not be considered as any sort of truth. Note: I am not a psychologist or researcher, I just simply get stuck on things and excessively analyze them. I figured it could be fun to discuss the concepts and even our own results.)
