This is neat.

It's a series of sorting tasks which, based on your reaction times, can tell you whether you might have unconscious biases about various issues (race, gender, religion, sexual orientation, etc.).

I've only done a couple of them, and I'm willing to admit that I didn't come out as perfectly race-neutral as I'd like to believe I am.

But knowing is half the battle, right?

Although I did have a perhaps unexpected result on one of the gender ones.

Apparently I associate women with science and men with liberal arts.

Also, apparently I like gay people better than straight people.

Neat.
