On several of these I think you might be confounding the positively correlated variables “has heard of this question” and “is on the autism spectrum”, the latter of which is anticorrelated with the kind of behavior you want (intuitive, empathetic listening without needing to ask a bunch of explicit questions). I find it unlikely that asking the question makes people worse at the behavior you want.
