Implicit Association Tests

dont get it because every time i click "i wish to proceed" it jumps me back to the home page.

Didn't work at all for me either, in exactly the same way. Maybe they didn't bother testing on IE. Interesting question as to how that would bias their results.

I went and looked, but got scared off. I think I'm prejudiced against pop-ups.

Works fine with IE !  Maybe it knows that subconsciously you don't really want to proceed.

Something must be wrong, then - Nobody with any sense likes him! 


Im starting to think that test shows more of the prejudices of its compilers, than it does about its participants.

there have been some questions raised about whether these tests measure predjudice or familiarity. I have noted that in all cases I take longer to assign negative words to 'bad' and make more mistakes.

I came out as an ageist racist who prefers George W Bush to Nixon. Not quite my own experience but then maybe we do all have underlying prejudices we are not aware of. I am not convinced that this matters as I am pretty sure that it is the things we are aware of and our actions that are the more important thing.

I must be an idiot.

I tried a couple of times, but it kept giving me the nasty red "X".

I refuse to allow their bias to label the words, I suppose....

And I know I refuse to knee-jerk my responses based purely on visual, so perhaps that is why I kept getting the red "X"

I eventually closed the pop-up in disgust, without finishing.
