It’s interesting that there is no option for “I don’t have an inner monologue”. I have one, a loud one, which is saying the things I’m typing right now, but I know this is not universal and some people are completely without.
I used to have one, but now I have a soundtrack. Mine's currently playing All I Need by Radiohead as I type this. I'm not sure what happened, or where my internal monologue went. It just......
I used to have one, but now I have a soundtrack. Mine's currently playing All I Need by Radiohead as I type this. I'm not sure what happened, or where my internal monologue went. It just... stopped one day. Not sure why, either, while I'm at it. I don't even remember when it went away.

I don't know if I have an inner monologue. I don't notice it when I am not thinking about it, and when I am, all I can think about is if I'm currently thinking in words, which of course, is accomplished with words.
My understanding (likely horribly wrong) is if you hear any voice in your head that you can make say any word it counts as an inner monologue. When you read this text, do you hear the words in...
My understanding (likely horribly wrong) is if you hear any voice in your head that you can make say any word it counts as an inner monologue.
When you read this text, do you hear the words in your head? If you try can you make a voice in your head say the words on the screen?
Some people have extreme control over their inner monologue and can get it to have full conversations, imitate all ranges and tones of voice, even sing.
Mine is very grounded in that it's exactly like if I was reading out loud, but in my head. I'm "saying" the words I'm typing in my head as I do it in my own voice. Sometimes I stop and think about the next sentence by talking it through in my head like I would put loud.
But I can't do much fun with it. Sometimes if I watch a lot of TV or something it'll get stuck in the voice of a character or something for a bit which is funny. If I remember it I can try and put it on in my head but I'm not very imaginative lol.
This is amazing. My wife is German (decent) and incredibly anal. She scored Both to my Neither and we're having a very good laugh that we both feel well represented by our representative...

As someone living in Germany and who thinks a lot about this topic, this was great to see. Interesting take on the responses, with the German and autistic ones usually only differing in reasoning...
As someone living in Germany and who thinks a lot about this topic, this was great to see. Interesting take on the responses, with the German and autistic ones usually only differing in reasoning and not result. I got neither, 13% for each.
lol that was fun, I got 36% Autistic and 36% German. Thus neither, and therefore part of the control group. I also find this a little funny as my sibling is autistic, and we’re not German, but we...
lol that was fun, I got 36% Autistic and 36% German. Thus neither, and therefore part of the control group.
I also find this a little funny as my sibling is autistic, and we’re not German, but we are Midwestern (USA)…and my great grandparents on at least one side did come over from Germany (but I would not consider myself German as I was raised with very few cultural connections to Germany).
I took the quiz and got 60% German. I’m pretty sure I’m autistic and doing post hoc justification as to why my behavior is socially positive, and so I get German. Anyway, I sent this to a friend...

Anyway, I sent this to a friend who got neither and it said to him the following.
Someone you follow scored either Both or German. They sent it to you as a question or as a joke. You are their control group.
I got absolutely and unreasonably accurately called out. Unbelievable.
40% German, 60% autistic. I'm inordinately pleased that they add up to 100%

Yeah, there were a few questions without answers I agreed with but in those I just picked one. I also got neither which may explain the technique.

Ich bin 44% deutsch und 38% autistisch. "Probably not autistic. Probably."
Also:
Hell yeah.

Ich spreche mehr Deutsch als ich bin, aber I like this quiz! Apparently I'm Kant-y!
Yaaaas queen!

31% German 27% Autistic thus neither. Fun little test.
49% Autistic and 29% German
Hmm, never thought of myself as autistic.
Ja, das ist richtig.
