How prejudiced are you? (NOT a meme)

Aug 05, 2005 04:57

A very interesting site dedicated to tests (both for demonstration purposes and for research purposes) which measure your level of prejudice in various subjects (age, homosexuality, race etc.) based on implicit preferences. It uses (as far as I could understand - I didn't spend much time on the theoretical stuff) reaction time in grouping relevant stimuli to check your automatic prejudice.

I think you'd be surprised to find out how prejudiced you are in areas you thought yourselves totally open-minded about. I wasn't really surprised, but that's only because other things have made me aware in the past of the prejudices I have against my will and contrary to my beliefs.

A real eye opener, though capable of making you hate yourselves for a while.
