Survey methodology
Autistic Dating member surveys are conducted via the platform and in the member community. Results are presented with sample sizes and dates. Where data is described as "placeholder", the survey has been designed but the results are pending. All survey data is anonymous and members participate voluntarily. We do not extrapolate beyond our member sample without noting it explicitly.
