Understanding the Harvard Fat Ass Test

The Harvard Fat Ass Test is an Implicit Association Test that measures automatic preferences between obese and thin faces. It reveals subconscious biases people may hold regarding body image. Taking this test can help increase awareness of implicit attitudes that influence perceptions and behaviors.

Weight ('Fat - Thin' IAT). This IAT requires the ability to distinguish faces of people who are obese and people who are thin. It often reveals an automatic preference for thin people relative to fat people.

Are you a fatty hater?

I haven't taken it yet but will post my results when I'm done.
