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

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

[thesheriff443]

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.]

We all have unconscious biases.

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

[LeatherTrumpet]

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

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.

I think I'll take it again to see what happens. Not now though it takes too long.

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]

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.

Both, all the time. Well unless I'm asleep which is my preferred state

You're right though
