IAT (Implicit Association Test): Age Test Result Analysis

IAT Test: Age Test Result Analysis (Student’s name) Literature and Language (Institutional affiliation) IAT Test: Age Test Result Analysis My age test result shows that I do not have an automatic preference between old and young people which is accurate because the answers I gave during the test were honest. It is also because I do not see the reason why there needs to be a choice between the 2 except for very specific reasons. I have friends and family who are younger and older than me. Each one of them have their own contribution to my life in a positive way. Regardless of where they come from or how I met them, if they do not harm me and I can trust them, age does not matter.

The experience that I have related to the age test was when I did charity programs because I went to an orphanage and a home for old people another time. There were games, singing, dancing, food, and storytelling. The kids from the other center shared their hopes and dreams in life. While the old people were giving stories about the life they had and what they can teach me about it. The kids gave me a lot of inspiration and enthusiasm to do better in life so that I can help more people and make them feel that someone cares. The stories from old people gave me a lot of wisdom and realization that are useful in achieving my dreams. Going to these 2 places gave me perspectives in life that I have not thought about no matter how driven I am. These kids remind me of what I want to become and the old people show me what strength can do because no matter what they w...
