Sounds very plausible, I'm afraid.

Has anyone of you actually done one of these "implicit association tests"?

That's a very interesting psychological test for example for testing racism, or negative/positive attitudes towards certain groups in general. Unlike surveys that rely on people giving honest answers etc., these tests give very objective results and require quite a bit of practice in order to successfully cheat them.

The somewhat unpleasant conclusion from IATs however is that despite what people claim, most people have racist attitudes.
