Implicit Association Test
Harvard University has up a series of Implicit Association Tests which are pretty interesting. They’re supposed to discover if you have subconscious prejudices. I think they work based on the same psychology quiz which asks you to name the colors, rather than the words.
My results so far:
- Your data suggest little or no automatic preference for White relative to Black
- Your data suggest a moderate automatic preference for Bush relative to Kerry
- Your data suggest a moderate automatic association between African American and Weapons
- Your data suggest a moderate automatic preference for GAY PEOPLE relative to STRAIGHT PEOPLE
That last one’s a stumper, since I didn’t think I really preferred either, but it’s all interesting.
