Stupid Test

The Implicit Association test was so bogus. I did the Native American one. Native American's are more American than we are.
My answer to question one is that these test told me nothing about the unconscious mind. If any thing, I am prejudiced against white people or the "true Americans." I am not prejudiced against Native Americans at all. These tests do not tell me much about the influence my society has on me. Again I say that this test was bogus. It did not allow you to put want you really wanted to put. It forced you to put their answer instead of your own. To answer question three, I would have to say that we are not all that aware of our attitudes and the effect that they have on our actions and behaviors. These test have not changed my prejudiced. These tests were created by white people to make the public think that they prefer whites to Native Americans and that white people are better than Native Americans.
