You can take the full AQ-10 test here. Note this test is intended as a quick screener, and cannot diagnose or rule out any condition on its own.
This weird attitude towards questions has puzzled me most of my life. People holding work presentations going “save your questions until the end” and being upset at people asking for completely necessary clarification in order to follow their presentation.
And people who ask USELESS questions at the end, which serves no other purpose than showing the audience that they too are very smart.
It’s just a social positioning ceremony for some people.
