I got little to no preference between african american to european people. I think its because I have friends who are black and I'm familiar with the group. I might be a little more racist toward latinos to be hones. Im gonna take that test to see.
10:11 AM
I got moderate preference to Europeans, I didn't think I was racist but I guess the test doesn't lie. I'd like to see a Xenophobic take that test
12:15 PM
I got moderate preference to African-Americans. well i guess i am racist towards my own kind. but I understand because my parents are African- American so I growing up with out the stereotypes, and i can tell there false to.

Joseph,
Your parents are African American? I had no idea.
Huy,
I can totally read that. It reminds me of bad essays I have graded.
5:58 PM
I love Stuff White People like. It's so unbelievably true as well.
6:24 PM
"Your data suggest a slight automatic preference for European American compared to African American." The test was very interesting but I feel like I chose slower when they swapped the sides labeled "African-American" and "European" so I just had to think longer about which button to click, not because I prefer white people.

"Your data suggest a moderate automatic preference for European American compared to African Americans."
I didn't like this test! Every time I got a big X I felt really bad if it had to do with the African American side... if that makes any sense. Ugh. I don't really believe it to be honest.
For the Shooter Game I got..
"Your Score: 430
Average reaction time:
Black Armed:723.36ms
Black Unarmed:811ms
White Armed:705.32ms
White Unarmed:736.48ms"
This was an interesting game, and it took me a shorter time to "shoot" the white guys with the guns. I thought it was interesting that they used all males, I wonder if the outcome would be different if there were all females.
10:23 PM
I apparently have a slight preference to Europeans. I do sometimes feel more uncomfortable around African-Americans, but that's usually because they are dressed like gangbangers. I get uncomfortable around white people dressed like that also. I guess I just subconsciously associate that with African-Americans.
For the shooter test:
Your Score: 520
Average reaction time:
Black Armed:603.2ms
Black Unarmed:684.36ms
White Armed:603.44ms
White Unarmed:676.08ms
Considering I'm going into the Army, I guess it's a good thing I can quickly distinguish between friend and foe <_<

"Your data suggest a moderate automatic preference for European American compared to African American."
thats my result whatever it's suppose to mean. i'd like to know how the test decides how racist you are.
3:32 PM
Mitchell,
As I stated in class today, it doesn't tell you if "you're racist." It looks for hidden bias.
3:36 PM
"Your data suggest a moderate automatic preference for European American compared to African American".
When they switched the sides and words around i got confused and it took me longer to answer and then sometimes i would think i was going to the right side but then it was wrong.
The shooter game:
Your Score: 680
Average reaction time:
Black Armed:645.44ms
Black Unarmed:710.68ms
White Armed:655.76ms
White Unarmed:691.24ms
This was an interesting game.
4:11 PM
i have a moderate preference to europeans than african americans.
i bet they would have different results if all the pictures of the african americans weren't mug shots.
4:39 PM
For the IAT game, my results were:

I got the preference of Europeans over African-Americans
That test was complicated
5:20 AM
I found that I had a faster reaction time shooting black armed men.It was really hard to tell sometimes what they were holding and I had to make a guess.
3:42 PM

Your data suggest little to no automatic preference between European American and African American.
hmm well i guess thats good lol! i thought it was interesting the picture where without color, so recognition came completely from knowing the difference in facial structures
9:21 PM
Your data suggest a moderate automatic preference for European American compared to African American.
As far as my attraction to a certain race, it is totally acurate, I have always been more atracted to "white people" more than any other color of skin. HOWEVER... As for how I get along with or treat races it is not close at all, I do everything in my power to be equal to all. But like I said before the attraction part is dead on...sadly.
