Camouflaging Autistic Traits Questionnaire (CAT-Q)

Scientific background →

The CAT-Q measures "camouflaging" -- the strategies some people (particularly autistic people diagnosed later in life, or undiagnosed) use to actively hide or compensate for autistic traits in social situations. It covers three dimensions: compensation, masking, and assimilation.

This test is a self-exploration tool, not a clinical or diagnostic assessment of autism. It does not replace a professional evaluation by a specialized psychologist or doctor.
