Racism Test

1. I expect that pairing “good” words with one racial group would feel noticeably easier for me than pairing “good” words with another group.

2. If my responses were scored by the typical IAT D method, I expect the result would be below zero (favoring Black over White in the common scoring setup).

3. In an IAT-style task, I expect my reaction times would show a noticeable advantage for 'White + Good' over 'Black + Good'.

4. In a rapid categorization task, I would be faster when 'Black faces' share a key with 'Bad words' than when 'White faces' share a key with 'Bad words'.

5. I rarely had to slow down dramatically to figure out what the categories were.

6. I think my quick reactions would show only a very small or no implicit preference by race. (reverse-coded)

7. With limited time to respond, I would hesitate more when a positive word appears with a Black face than when a positive word appears with a White face (if they share a response key).

8. I did not experience technical or physical issues (e.g., sticky keys) that affected my responses.

9. If I had to categorize faces quickly, I think my speed would show a moderate-to-strong automatic preference pattern.

10. In an IAT-style task, I expect my reaction times would show a noticeable advantage for 'Black + Good' over 'White + Good'.

11. When responding quickly, I would find it easier to treat 'Black' and 'Bad' as belonging together than to treat 'White' and 'Bad' as belonging together.

12. I think my snap judgments about people’s trustworthiness vary strongly depending on perceived race.

13. My responses did not include many extremely fast trials compared to my typical pace.

14. I rarely responded so fast that it felt like guessing.

15. I think my immediate sense of “familiar/comfortable” is noticeably stronger for some racial groups than others.

16. If I had to respond very quickly, I would make fewer mistakes when 'White' is paired with 'Good' than when 'Black' is paired with 'Good'.

17. I think my automatic associations between race and “danger” are strong enough to affect split-second reactions.

18. My gut-level preferences by race feel strong even when my deliberate beliefs are neutral.

19. When responding quickly, I would find it easier to treat 'White' and 'Good' as belonging together than to treat 'Black' and 'Good' as belonging together.

20. If I made errors in a speeded pairing task, they would be more likely to happen when 'Black' is paired with 'Good' than when 'White' is paired with 'Good'.

21. After a mistake, I returned to my usual pace quickly rather than becoming erratic.

22. I think my automatic preference by race is strong enough that I have to consciously correct for it sometimes.

23. I avoided distractions (e.g., notifications, conversations) while taking the timed task.

24. In fast-paced situations, I feel a clear pull toward viewing one racial group more favorably than another.

25. I expect a timed association test would classify my implicit preference strength in the moderate-to-strong range rather than slight.

26. My responses did not include many extremely slow trials compared to my typical pace.

27. I made only a few key-press mistakes during the sorting blocks.

28. Even if I endorse equality, I suspect my automatic preferences by race are still fairly strong.

29. I did not have many trials where I felt confused about which category an item belonged to.

30. My first impressions of competence are likely to differ by race in a way that feels hard to control.

31. In a timed task, I would be faster to classify positive words when they are paired with White faces than when they are paired with Black faces.

32. Once I understood the instructions, my performance stayed stable across trials.

33. I did not repeatedly press the wrong side for the same type of item.

34. I stayed focused throughout the task with minimal lapses in attention.

35. My accuracy stayed consistent across different blocks of the task.

36. When the task demands speed, I would feel a stronger 'pull' toward responding as if White is associated with good and Black is associated with bad.

37. If the key mapping switched mid-task, I would slow down more when switching to 'Black + Good' than when switching to 'White + Good'.

38. I did not have frequent “slip” errors (pressing the wrong key by accident).

39. If I took an IAT-style task today, I would likely show at least a moderate strength of implicit racial preference.

40. When I’m distracted, I’m more likely to react more positively to some racial groups than others.

41. I suspect that, without thinking, I assign more positive traits to one racial group than another in a fairly strong way.

42. In a timed task, I would be faster to classify negative words when they are paired with Black faces than when they are paired with White faces.

43. While completing timed sorting tasks, I kept a steady pace rather than alternating between rushing and hesitating.

44. I expect my implicit racial preference, if present, would be strong enough to show up consistently across repeated timed tasks.

45. My performance did not vary widely depending on whether the items were words or images (when applicable).

46. In a rapid word-sorting task, I would likely make more errors when “good” is paired with a less-preferred racial group.

47. When sorting quickly, I expect 'Black + Good' to feel more natural than 'White + Good'.

48. In a rapid task, I would find it easier to keep the same key for 'White' and 'Good' than to keep the same key for 'Black' and 'Good'.

49. When the task demands speed, I would feel a stronger 'pull' toward responding as if Black is associated with good and White is associated with bad.

50. When sorting quickly, I expect 'White + Good' to feel more natural than 'Black + Good'.

51. In a speeded sorting task, I would be faster when 'White faces' share a key with 'Good words' than when 'Black faces' share a key with 'Good words'.

52. If I were forced to choose quickly, my first impulse would align 'Black' with positive traits more readily than 'White' with positive traits.

53. I consistently used the correct keys for the left and right categories.

54. I rarely paused or stalled for long periods during the timed trials.

55. My instinctive reactions to photos of people from different racial groups are clearly more positive for one group than another.

56. When moving quickly, I would more readily link “successful” with some racial groups than others.

57. In quick decisions (e.g., choosing whom to approach for help), my choice would likely reflect a strong automatic comfort difference by race.

58. When I’m tired, my automatic racial preferences become more noticeable.

59. I was able to keep my rhythm even when the pairing of categories changed.

60. I felt that my reaction times were reliable enough that repeating the task would likely give similar results.

61. If I made errors in a speeded pairing task, they would be more likely to happen when 'White' is paired with 'Bad' than when 'Black' is paired with 'Bad'.

62. My split-second reactions toward different racial groups are about equally positive. (reverse-coded)

63. My speed felt controlled and deliberate rather than chaotic.

64. If I were forced to choose quickly, my first impulse would align 'White' with positive traits more readily than 'Black' with positive traits.

65. With limited time to respond, I would hesitate more when a negative word appears with a White face than when a negative word appears with a Black face (if they share a response key).

66. I believe my quick emotional reactions to names that sound like different racial groups show a clear preference pattern.

67. My response speed was similar from the beginning to the end of the task.

68. Under time pressure, pairing 'Black faces' with 'Good words' would feel more effortful for me than pairing 'White faces' with 'Good words'.

69. If my responses were scored by the typical IAT D method, I expect the result would be above zero (favoring White over Black in the common scoring setup).

70. Under time pressure, I expect my immediate reactions to reflect a noticeable automatic preference for one racial group over another.

71. When I made an error, I corrected it quickly without getting thrown off.

72. I maintained similar effort and attention in each block rather than “checking out” at times.

73. In a rapid task, I would find it easier to keep the same key for 'Black' and 'Good' than to keep the same key for 'White' and 'Good'.
