    This test is bunk. A child's cognitive biases aren't developed enough to make decisions based on prejudices. Because the selections were polar, the child had no choice but to choose based on race, so of course she picks light. She picks it from familiarity. Taking cues from the good/bad pattern of the questioning, she moved away from what she self identified because she felt like it was the "right answer", not because she had any prejudices. If this were a color wheel of people, it would be an unbiased experiment and there would be no data. Totally bunk test, and irresponsible IMHO.
