Frequently asked questions

Is NeuroType an ADHD or autism test, and can it diagnose me?

No. NeuroType is a private reflection space for adults who want to make sense of patterns around attention, sensory preferences, masking, social communication, and executive function. It cannot diagnose ADHD, autism, AuDHD, or any other condition, and it cannot confirm, rule out, or replace an assessment by a qualified clinician. Results describe how you answered, not a clinical finding. Diagnosis needs a qualified professional who can look at history, context, development, impact, and other possible explanations.

Is my data private?

Yes. Individual answers stay in your browser. They are not sent to NeuroType servers, not written to logs, and never included in analytics. You can clear them at any time.

Do I need an account?

No. Every reflection tool and the guided journey are free to use with no account and no sign up. Your answers stay in your browser.

What is the Full NeuroType Journey?

The Full NeuroType Journey is a guided route through the reflection tools that ends in a combined summary. It is free to use, needs no account, and your answers stay in your browser.

What should I do with my results?

Use them as notes. They may help you spot patterns, prepare examples, or decide what to discuss with a doctor, primary care clinician, psychologist, psychiatrist, therapist, or another qualified professional. They are not clinician-written evidence and should not be used to self-diagnose, rule anything out, or make treatment decisions.
