Are you bias?
As Salamu Alaikum,
My friend has to take some of these tests for school.
Has anyone ever heard of them? If so what did you think?
I tried taking one but the format gave me a headache.

For some reason, I always freak out whenever I see Arabs on the plane I'm flying on.

Your data suggest a moderate automatic preference for White People compared to Black People.
After Gray rectangles, 16 of the responses were 'Pleasant', 8 of the responses were 'Unpleasant'.
After Black people, 20 of the responses were 'Pleasant', 4 of the responses were 'Unpleasant'.
After White people, 10 of the responses were 'Pleasant', 14 of the responses were 'Unpleasant'.

Re: Are you bias?
Problem with the test is it's too black and white (heheheh).
Like the part with the Chinese characters? I didn't find any of them to be particularly pleasant or unpleasant, so eventually I was just hitting I or E randomly since you have to choose something. I didn't pay any attention to the faces, and in fact quite a few times I didn't see any faces before the Chinese character.

Yeah......I'm with vegetables on this one, I have a low opinion of humans generally speaking. I've got to work on that.

Re: Are you bias?
So I sat through it and it said I have a slight bias against "light skinned" people.
