Spiky Profile Self-Reflection Tool
Understand your unique cognitive pattern — your peaks of strength and valleys where simple adjustments can help. Based on current neurodiversity research into spiky profiles rather than fixed "types."
The profile generated reflects self-reported patterns and should be used as a starting point for reflection, conversation, and personal experimentation — not as evidence of any condition. Cognitive profiles are dynamic and context-dependent.
If you have concerns about your attention, learning, emotional regulation, or wellbeing, please consult your GP, psychologist, psychiatrist, or other qualified treating professional.

Building your spiky profile...
Did you know? Research shows neurodivergent cognition is characterised by intra-individual variability — your performance and capacity naturally shift across contexts, energy levels, and environments. A spiky profile captures this reality far better than a fixed "type."

Drag the sliders to see how sleep, stress, and environment might shift your profile — and what that means for your spikes and valleys.
This calculator illustrates how your profile is context-dependent, not fixed. Small environmental changes can significantly flatten or sharpen your spikes.
