What is your implicit bias toward major religions?

I scored high-positive toward Islam, medium-positive toward Hinduism and Judaism, and somewhat-negative towards Christianity.

My observation about methodology is that they’re assuming a pause/time lapse represents a struggle to overcome implicit associations, but a pause could also represent confusion. For me, every time “Abraham” was mentioned I had to stop and think about the fact I was supposed to associate him only with Judaism, and not with Christianity or Islam. There was also the times that the color associations yellow/grey created a false or twitch response that had to be “corrected.”

That was a problem for me too. “Abraham”? OK, he goes with Islam. No? Uh, correct, correct…
