very misleading test, its called unconscious bias

I did the test and had a slight preference towards African Americans. I disagree. I have a HUGE preference towards anyone non white. Sorry, but the years of racism I faced just moulded me to become this way (I'm Asian btw).

Same happening in the UK.\n\n\nDozens of illegal migrants are given coronavirus tests before being detained by immigration officers in Dover as 169 people are intercepted trying to cross the English Channel\n\nThe migrants were on six boats and they were taken to the Port of Dover today\n\nBefore being handed to immigration officers, they were tested for coronavirus \n\nNHS IS DOOMED!

Came to see the validity of this. Then saw Rebel. A true source of nonsense and idiocy. As for this matter, asylum seekers are being detained, tested, and quarantined for 14 days before moving on on going back to where the came from. Idiots going out to malls and restaurants are more of a threat than these people are.

This is only a test it doesn’t really tell the truth about you

the truest test of character : give a person authority , then watch what they do with it ...

Police are not selected for intelligence, they are selected based on their ability to follow orders. In the USA, people who score high on police tests are not picked to move on to the next step in the hiring process. Police agencies in general only want officers who can do what they are told and who do not have any issues bending the law.

I am a legal immigrant. my parents paid a lot of money and we also had done health tests to move to Canada. i'm a permanent resident and i pay taxes, why is it for free for them? not fair, sorry

Booze hound Blair says all is good, they are interrogated and tested. Welcome to the shithole of Canada.

I hate that one test on the computer, where they show images and words and think it means something when you are done. It gives me a headache. I alternate the keys as fast as I can until it is just over. That test reveals absolutely nothing.

I couldn't find the test on the website

On the test I got little to no preference of colour of skin, just as I imagined. I base my opinions on individuals and social circles.

Ok great test however....what country or region were the landlords from?

I want to take that test.\nAlso 29:27, my same rxn as her.

Everyone: The test question are worded wrong!!! They’re trying to mess you up! You guys know that’s the point it’s an unconscious choice so while one wording may make you disagree on the surface another wording may strike a cord with your unconscious mind. It’s supposed to make you respond quick and true with different versions of the question to make your mind work.

Racism is defiantly a problem BUT offers are USUALLY based on credit scores. They didn’t provide more than one test that ‘determines bias’?!?!?!? These tests are garbage. PEOPLE OFFER HELP based physiology. Example... If someone looks like they are looking for something then they don’t know what they want. If you offer help and customers deny but hang elongated experiences of looking for something — one would look for ‘why’ is this person still looking heavily for something but yet denied help.

Ok why the black wasn't put to the test for those apartment

All these tests are dumb and not meaningful

It depends where you live, if you live in a strictly black neighborhood and are white, expect to be looked at differently, if you live in a strictly white neighborhood and are black, expect to be looked at differently as well, so these tests and questions of being followed at the beginning, aren’t very accurate

I took test,\nMine show i little to No preference between both race?I didn’t know i was that good\nAnd i am a brown middle asian.

Ben Shapiro spoke about this. His analysis way far better and more in depth. CBC and this test are a loaded gun. The good/bad test is again loaded. Watch Shapiros talk, and avoid the political agenda

Just like most discussions about race, the tests depicted are shallow and lacking any deep thought on a complicated subject. Are you testing for early conditioning or real behavior issues. We are not Pavlov's dogs. With the occasional flash of rational thought we CAN recognize bias within ourselves and modify our behavior appropriately. Go back and try this again. Your bias about white folks bias is pretty biased.

Hi i have the test in France i can use it ?

And there is no test on your site that I could find ??‍♂️

Mark is carrying a closed case. Rory was in the makeup area. Everyone is closely watched there. Leeland has an open bag. Too many variables makes the test invalid.

It was interesting taking the test. Thanks for the link.

So biased and a horrible test lmao.

God this documentary is so flawed. The symphony? Really? You are comparing the 50s from today? There were much less immigrants in Canada back then. There were less immigrants and ppl of color that played instruments. And those that did, less of them actually tried out for a symphony. And then the blind resume test totally proved no bias. In fact I think it might be the opposite. I’m American (but I have a horribly foreign name). Americans looking for jobs, I think, eh... another goofball lazy American. But if I see a foreign name, I assume they might be more serious and work harder because of old school family values.

The Best buy test is utterly inaccurate. Those workers get paid on commission, so they are incentivized to ask customers for help and to make a sale. Maybe the second guy just happened to run into more than the first...

I say BS to these test. You can make a test or survey state any answer that you wish...

A speed test with flashing pictures putting people under pressure leads to inconsistent results let the same person do the test 10 times and find a average because 1 test will not determine a sound result

Now send a teenager to these places and have them do the same thing. Any race.\nAlso, something was wrong with that racial biases test. It's supposed to change both the race AND the associated word between each photo, otherwise you don't have to read both. The test as administered can't be passed and its results don't have any meaning otherwise. You have to mix up all three things, the photo, the race word, and the associated word, or else it doesn't function correctly. The applicability of the test itself also fails if you don't adjust it to a baseline, as the idea of a 'zero bias' human being simply doesn't exist. Getting your bias down to the level of random noise is the best any human being can do, regardless of their own race.

What a dumb test, it in of it self is subjective to the people who designed it.

im gonna go out on a limb and say that test isnt accurate

Your test is incomplete without a South East Asian.

That test is by far the most laughable thing In this episode.

This acclaimed and hugely influential test, though, has repeatedly fallen short of basic scientific standards.test proves nothing and could let people with bias off the hook and vice versa

I actually tested out the name thing on a resume. Its very true.

So where are the people of color taking a test or do we ignore the racism

The questions on the racial test are biased, and worded badly.

This is so frustrating. I spent twelve years in the apartment industry and went through literally hundreds of hours of Fair Housing Training. I was given test shoppers on numerous occasions, just like every other property manager I knew and I always passed with flying colors because I stuck to a script and said everything the same way, even with the same tone of voice, every time. It didn't matter who was in front of me, my job was more important than anything else and that meant absolutely no possibility of discrimination. Here in the US, management companies and even the individuals onsite can be held monetarily responsible if testers find them to be discriminatory. It is very disappointing to see property staff making such bluntly poor choices. We all know better in that industry. This is the 21st century, we should be beyond this.

Then why don’t you have a guy wearing a mask over his face people might not be favorable to masks it doesn’t mean it’s racism at the mask everyone for the test again no control to your experiment you’re dumb just like I may get treated differently if I have a biker outfit on then a suit and a tie it doesn’t mean it’s racism or clean-shavenVersus a beard

The bias test is unfair.. the black guy is just better at picking out bad guys.. what's that say.

Can someone explaine to me the real scientific value and meaning off that test?

Canada should also accept UK degree from recognised university as a alternate to IELTS test

Ya Discrimination doesnt come your way....sure...try being a white guy in a minority neighborhood. Clearly these tests weren't done in minority areas

True test..\n\n COME TO USA

That computer test was actually disproven to admit racism

Did they test if white people get discriminated against by people who are black or asian as well in canada? Or just if white people discriminate?

I totally agree with the masses,to get a job offer when you are outside Canada is very difficult.I sat for an assessment test,for one of Canada's reputable company.It took me more than two hours to finish,but when they realized that am outside Canada,there response was that,we have decided not move forward with your application.Other efforts have not even paid off,no responses.
