Welcome to the new 2010 edition of getting to know your family and friends. Here is what you are supposed to do: Change all the answers so that they apply to you. Then, send this to a bunch of people you know, INCLUDING the person who sent it to you. Some of you may get this several times; that means you have lots of friends.

PERSONALITY TRAIT:
Coke Vs Pepsi

I took another test from the same people, Project Implicit, that did the us vs them test.

Your data suggest no difference in your automatic preferences for Coca Cola vs. Pepsi Cola.

Depending on the magnitude of your result, your automatic associations may be described as 'slight', 'moderate', 'strong', or 'little to no preference'. How implicit associations affect our judgments and behaviors is not well understood and may be influenced by a number of variables. As such, the score should serve as an opportunity for self-reflection, not as a definitive assessment of your implicit thoughts or feelings.
