I took the Skin Test (Light to Dark). My score turned out to be a preference towards those of lighter skin to darker skin.

I suppose this test just kind of showed how fast you place the faces of different color and the words. However, I think it is an ineffective test to show you about your unconscious mind. I personally was concentrating on getting it to the side it needed to be on and the game kept switching them. So once you could quickly do it right the first round you had to start all over again which was a challenge in general. The length of time didn't really have a play in your prejudice or unconscious thoughts about the color of the face's skin or what the word was. That is just how I see it though, your opinion may differ.

In our society there is a lot of association to certain races with derogatory terms. However, not everyone may have a prejudice. We also have to remember though, that the media of any sort has quite the impact on us. Both consciously and subconsciously. You may not necessarily agree to the statement made in the media but you still have it in your memory, which possible could play a role somehow, somewhere.

I honestly think this generation of teenagers are significantly unaware of their attitude and how it affects others. I could name multiple scenarios in my own high school where this happens. To the person, what they say is possibly meaningless but if you look at it at another perspective you could see how it can hurt someone. I myself can say I have said things wrongly and had others be affected by it and I never intended on that happening. Today the saying "think before you speak" has lost itself.

Even so, trying to be as open minded about these tests as possible I could understand why and how these tests go about and could be considered somewhat effective. I personally don't think it is one hundred percent accurate but the simple fact most races prefer their own race kind of has a play. I don't see myself as any different after taking the test. I kind of know where I stand when it comes to controversial stuff like that. I suggest people in Psych to take this one though and let me know how it pans out for you.
