Autism and self-awareness: a study tests whether questionnaires capture personality traits accurately
NCT ID NCT06726187
First seen Jul 17, 2026 · Last updated Jul 17, 2026
Summary
This study looks at whether adults with autism can reliably report their own personality disorder traits using a standard questionnaire. Researchers compare these self-reports with descriptions from someone who knows the participant well, such as a family member or partner. The goal is to see if self-report tools work well for this group, which could improve both research and everyday clinical care.
