4. Your data suggest little to no automatic preference between White people and Black people

5. Test has built in bias.


I got faster as I performed the test. That is, of course, to be expected.

Since the test started by requiring the test taker to associate White people with Bad and Black people with Good, then reversed those associations in the latter portion of the test, if most people get faster as they go, then they are going to be faster at associating White people with Good in the 2nd half of the test.

I'd bet if the same person took the exact same test, but in the opposite order, you would see people associating Black people with Good faster than they did for White people.

I have to leave now and go turn in my registration for the republican party and then register as a Democrat. My results:

Thank you!

The categorization task you completed is called the Implicit Association Test (IAT). The task assesses associations between concepts by measuring how quickly a person can categorize, for example, GOOD words with White faces compared to GOOD words with Black faces. The idea is that the more strongly associated the two concepts are in memory, the more quickly you will be able to categorize words into those paired categories. Your score is reported as an implicit association of Good with White and Bad with Black if you were faster at categorizing Good words with White faces compared to Black faces. The test often reveals associations that are different than one's conscious beliefs. For example, even people who have no conscious preference between Black and White may still have implicit associations that White is better than Black.

Your results are reported below:

Your data suggest a moderate automatic preference for Black people compared to White people.

Well, damn.

I got the same thing thundley4 did.

Non-racism must be a characteristic of we Midwesterners.

Too bad for the primitives.

I'm betting not a lot of DUmmies will cut and paste their results, until one of them gets something showing they aren't racist. Then all the DUmmies will just copy from the first one.

Um so if you have a preference for black people or you have a preference for white people does that not mean we are all racists?

I have an automatic preference for white people, which, being born white and raised by white people strikes me as absolutely natural.

This test is utter horseshit.  I got every one "correct".  Then it said I had a slight auto preference for white people.

The thing I would really like to do is rig up some electrodes to the balls or tits of whatever liberal PhD came up with the test. Every time it showed a black face or a bad experience and I got it correct, it would send 20000 volts to the body part previously mentioned.  Every time I got the other side correct, it would send 10000 volts.  Every time I missed one, no volts.

See how that dumbass likes it.  I could do it all day long. 

The really sad part is I am sure this ****ed up "study" was funded with my tax dollars. :banghead:
