While there have been no formal studies on the topic , my informal research and surveys suggest that Aspergers does appear to overlap with maladaptive day dreaming. Some people have AS without the daydreaming component, and some seem to have maladaptive intense daydreaming without the social deficits that go along with it.

Can you take a test online for Asperger's Syndrome?

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.

Can you join the police if you have Aspergers?

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.

Can maladaptive behavior that is short-lived go away if ignored?

Yes it can. Maladaptive behavior depends on a variety of causes and stressors. If it's a transient state, once the stressors are removed, acting out may well also disappear. The question here is one of causation. Transient physiological pathologies (for instance) are as likely to cause maladaptive behavior as chronic psychological issues. Look to the cause :}

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.
