The Human Word-Association Test...

A bit of research that'd be interesting:

Theory: When white americans aged 40 or younger are asked about the origin of a made-up quote, most will answer in the "entertainment" category.


Have the reaserchers recite a made-up line ala "Men are doubtful for one reason, fear."

Now ask various groups such as different religions, income levels, gender, race, age, Country: "Where do you belive that line came from (literature, television, movie, song, etc.)."

Have a look at the answers and observe.
