Test Your Hidden Racial Biases
Have you heard about the Implicit Association Tests? These tests were developed by psychologists at Yale University and the University of Washington. They serve as a way of measuring of one's attitude (preference, stereotype or bias) about certain subjects. The suggestion is that while people are sometimes unwilling to admit to their preference on certain subjects (race included), there is also a factor that can make one unable to admit these biases. The tests are designed to break through these barriers and present the user with some insight into their "automatic preferences."
