20/20 Takes on Race Sex

Post by Marie5656 »

Oh, I watched most of it..tuned in about 15 minutes late. I found it very interesting. I can see where the stereotypes come in, they way they talk about it. I did not see the whole segment on the race part though, just the last few minutes, so can someone fill me in on what they talked about?

You have completed the study


Thank you for your participation. In this study, we are investigating conscious and unconscious preferences for different topics varying in importance, familiarity, and relevance to the self. Your result, reported below, is already corrected for the order in which you performed the task. Your data suggest little to no automatic preference between John Kerry and George Bush.


Depending on the magnitude of your result, your automatic associations may be described as 'slight', 'moderate', 'strong', or 'little to no preference (or identity)'. How implicit associations affect our judgments and behaviors is not well understood. Also, the score described above may be influenced by a number of variables including your familiarity with the categories and the particular items used to represent the categories. As such, the score should serve as an opportunity for self-reflection, not as a definitive assessment of your implicit thoughts or feelings. This and future research will clarify the way in which implicit thinking and feelings affects our perception, judgment, and action.
