Found this on my travels and thought I might as well post it. It's a Tolerence .org test to find out if you've have any hidden bias towards skin colour, identity, age etc. It's a response time test. I have taken only one , and found that I have a slight tendancy to associate America with White Americans rather then Native Americans. Take the test and find out if you have any hidden bias. http://tolerance.org/hidden_bias/02.html
The first problem is the test is already bias, since it asks for your tendencies to like or dislike or race or group.
You mean freaks like Krazee Kubans in Miami, Joe McCarthy, the John Birch Society, Scalia, the "militias", the NRA, and Goldwater?
Re: Re: Test for hidden bias. I did the fat test as first a fat hating rightwinger then as a flubber loving leftie and pretty much made the same number of mistakes. The test said that I hated fat people and then that siad that I no automatic prefernce between Fat and thin. Which begs the question whats the point of the a test to find the hidden bias when the overt plays a major role in the results. It also begs the quesion of why was I dumb enough to post it in the first place.
Does the total number of "mistakes" affect the outcome? Or does each mistake affect the other? I know with personality tests, answers DO affect each other. So, the number of mistakes in this test is hopefully inconsequential. Whereas the mistakes made as they relate to one another is the determining factor.
