Here is your result:
Your data suggest a slight automatic preference for White people over Black people.

AnnieK 01-08-2019 10:00 AM

I got confused though as they switched the good and bad and I didn't notice for a while :laugh:

or I am a RACIST and a BIGOT...who knew

thesheriff443 01-08-2019 12:51 PM

I think we are all unitentually racist, as in we reconise our own kind.

Put it this way, if white person is a dog then a black person is a cat.

Marsh. 01-08-2019 12:53 PM

We all have unconscious biases.

Whether those become conscious and we act on them determines whether we're racist or not.

Crimson Dynamo 01-08-2019 01:00 PM

Here is your result:

Your data suggest a strong automatic preference for Black people over White people.

Your result is described as an "Automatic preference for Black people over White people" if you were faster responding when Black people and Good are assigned to the same response key than when White people and Good were classified with the same key. Your score is described as an "Automatic preference for White people over Black people" if the opposite occurred.

Your automatic preference may be described as "slight", "moderate", "strong", or "no preference". This indicates the strength of your automatic preference.

The IAT requires a certain number of correct responses in order to get results. If you made too many errors while completing the test you will get the feedback that there were too many errors to determine a result.



In other words the least Racist Tibb member:smug:

Fascinating LT, sorry for ever doubting you. That means you must have hesitated alot when the image came up of a white face and 'good' but pressed quickly when it was the other way round. Its fascinating that you are the only member to get 'strong' too. Looks like you are indeed the least racist person on TiBB.

Try the link in the OP, it's slightly different questioning, it changed my result though

Thats the problem with tests like that, just a slight hesitation will take you into another category. I think I can remember the times when I hesitated TBH. It was subconscious but I do remember hesitating a couple of times and I think one of the times was cuz they changed the buttons around and I didnt realize.:joker:

Yeah it was them swapping the categories from E to I confused me most of all, when I got into a grove I think I was pretty quick with all of them

Twosugars 01-08-2019 01:22 PM

I had to hesitate bc didn't want to get red cross and I'm not very fast on the uptake due to my meds and generally ****ty cognition thanks to depression
But take the result on board and will repeat the test soon

Agree. I reckon most people would be fairly consistent and get either a 'no preference' or 'slight' all thru the test so to get a 'strong' preference would mean alot of hesitation on one specific part of the test.

This is another factor. Maybe we are a bit groggy or tired and that would also impact our response time.

You're right though

I had a couple of beers last night so the screens a bit of a blur atm. :joker: I wonder what I'd get if I did the test now.

Moniqua 01-08-2019 01:45 PM

Little to no automatic preference between White people and Black people.

disagree :hmph:

Cherie 01-08-2019 01:45 PM

so the general consensus is the test is **** because you are getting a result that you don't agree with?

as is often the case these tests tell you a little bit more than they perhaps intend to..

If you see it like that then OK but I am pointing out what must have happened in LT's test. Do you deny he must have hesitated alot on one specific part of the test. He must have :shrug:

I said the test was easy to beat the first time I was asked about it. Do you think my responses in this thread are that the test is great but now it not? Go look thru the thread. I have consistently doubted the validity of the test and have said its just a bit of fun.

Had a few drinks last night too, I prefer white people when I'm hung over and black people when I'm not?

I'm just gonna do it to see how many hesitations its takes to a get a 'strong' preference.
