In order to put the thread's debate about whether or not Mumei has autism or not to rest once and for all, I have taken it upon myself to get actual results.
I have taken three different autism tests to determine whether Mumei would actually be considered for diagnosis; I have answered these tests from the POV of Mumei, based on her personality, behavior and all of the information she has related about herself in streams. And before you say 'but how could you possibly know how Mumei would answer/what answers would match her' I have watched Mumei since debut and seen hours and hours of her content; I have never once skipped a supachat reading even when having to hear 'don don' 'chunky monkey' and 'whatever camel' over and over again.
Furthermore, I have even intentionally avoided trying to game the tests and answer in a way that I think is likely to produce a positive resut and have answered agree to statements that would make her more sociable such as 'I enjoy chitchat' 'I like making friends' etc.
As you can see, even factoring these things in, the results are still what they are.
The first test is the typical industry standard Simon Baron-Cohen 50 question long 'Autism Spectrum Quotient' test that almost all actual doctors/clincians use as the preliminary assessment to see if someone would qualify for a session to determine diagnosis. This is the test in which I factored in Mumei's sociability as best as possible - the result still indicates likelihood of autism.
The second test is one for parents to see if their child might have autism - this one I have based the answers on Mumei's stories of her childhood, such as being silent and not talking/interacting with people/her mother. As you can see, the score is above the average score for autism in children.
The third test is the 'Empathy Quotient' (and as you can see, this test is described as being statistically very reliable). This one is slightly confusing since the score is descending i.e. the lower the score the more likely to be autistic; the threshold score for autism is 30 or lower - as you can see, Moom scores lower than this meaning high likelihood (this is even factoring in such answers as agreeing that 'my friends say I am good at understanding their problems')
In conclusion, this trifecta of results answered from the POV of Mumei derived entirely from her observed behavior and information from streams indicates STRONGLY that she should be referred for an official diagnosis of Autism in the eyes of any standard clinician.
