Best Answer

Being cruel to animals is not a characteristic associated with people with Asperger's Syndrome. Often, people with AS are more comfortable with animals than with people. They can be very concerned about the welfare of animals.

Cruelty to animals is a trait associated with antisocial personality disorder (i.e. psychopathy and sociopathy) or attachment disorder.

yes there are many tests for aspergers . there is one problem . getting a good score in a test does not mean you have aspergers . if you want to make sure that you have aspergers and you get a high score i suggest you sign up for a diagnosis . if you dont get a high aspie score its not likely you have aspergers and you shouldn't bother much . what a test says is not always true You could take an online test to give yourself an idea whether you could have Asperger syndrome, but to know for sure you would need to see a properly qualified professional, such as a psychiatrist or psychologist, for a thorough assessment.

In order to enter the police force, a person must pass both psychological and physical reviews. I would not say it could never be done, but it would not be likely. Most people with Aspergers Syndrome tend to have some issues with speech and social interaction. These would both count against a possible officer candidate.

Is Aspergers a sex linked syndrom?

No, but in one study boys with aspergers outnumber girls 4 to 1 where as another study read that boys may outnumber girls by 10 to 1.
