SQL - Different where conditions for two columns
Just some programming note. When dealing with SQL database you can face the problem how to select two or more columns with different conditions. Here is the solution based on the CASE:
This problem is also discussed on internet for example here:

Autistic, systemizing and empathizing quotients
In my last experiment I have been investigating along with mental abilities and EEG also testosterone levels and psychological quotients. These quotients have been shown to be correlated with mental abilities and also testosteron levels. Our aim is also to focus whether we can see some differences in the EEG signal.
But what are these quotients? All of them have been proposed to better describe people with autism (mainly Asperger syndrom) and were designed by Simon Baron-Cohen ( http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Simon_Baron-Cohen).
It is a set of 4 questionnaires which sometimes overlap a little. In empathizing and systemizing questionnaire there are also some blind questiones which aren't consider for the quotient summation. The first 3 (autism, empathy and systemizing) have 4 answers - strongly agree, slightly agree, slightly disagree and strongly disagree where you have to choose only one answer. The fourth questionnaire is focused on empathy detection based on the ability of detecting state of the people mind from people eyes.
Autism quotient - 50 questions
Systemizing quotient - 60 questions
Empathy quotient - 60 questions
Empathy from eyes - 36 questions (normal 22-28 correct)
