Political Bias Quiz
In preparation for my Soul Matters small group meeting I chose the “Test Yourself” option. These tests, 5 in total, determined my level of political polarization. Of the 3 tests I actually took, my results on the “Political Bias Quiz” embarrassed me.
I thought that I’m fairly unbiased. After all, I listen to NPR, which, although liberal, gives voice to conservatives. But my test result was 84.98% biased, where the average was 47.14%. In fact, only 1% of respondents were more biased than I was! I have some personal work to do.

My results email included other tools from ClearerThinking.org that i plan to use to moderate my unconscious political bias, such as:
- Belief Challenger: Gain More Accurate Beliefs
- Common Misconceptions Quiz: Sorting Popular True Beliefs from Complete B.S.
- Learning From Mistakes: A Systematic Approach
