Saw through it at the first input switch. Even if you didn't tell me what it was for, I could have gamed the shit out of it. If I were to take it many times in a row, would I get the same results, how is it different from a sidecroller with two inputs, say a and b...ala mario of nintendo fame?I suppose they would be easy to game if you repeat them, but if you take them straight up, they seem to show some actual associations.
That would be a fun meta-experiment. To see if gamers could achieve a desired result with greater frequency than non-gamers.
Anyway, this topic isn't about the test, that's just interesting side candy. Implicit bias exists, even if that tests isn't great at measuring it. Which I'm not qualified to say one way or another.
