  2. Emotion Scale • The emotion scale is a subjective measuring tool designed to give a common descriptor to study participants as it relates to their tension or anxiety levels in a particular environment. Many people affected by ASD go from White to Black without being aware of , or having descriptors for the scale between. • It was decided to use 3 data points only in this scale to help alleviate error due to the subjective nature of the study and also the ability of study participants to appropriately grade levels of emotions. It is presumed that with time, the grading levels could be increased if needed as participants felt more levels of anxiety or emotion. • The word Meltdown also means shutdown in this scale. The premise of this word (meltdown) is that it causes a situation whereby anxiety emotions become so strong that the ASD individual can no longer function appropriately . This is often described as rage when it manifests as outward anger (throwing things, screaming, etc) but can often manifest itself in much more subtle ways such as an inability to articulate thoughts in the same meaningful way as when there is no anxiety or the strong(seemingly unreasonable) need to be alone and left alone (AKA “claming” up)
