Lets Play a Game
And by that I mean I need a little help from you guys on a small research paper :)
I'm writing a small paper on stereotypes and social stigmas. I would greatly appreciate if you guys could answer a few questions for me.
I'ts a very short, and very simple question.
What is the first thing to come to your mind when you read these categories? (Please put down the very first thing you think of, no matter what it is. Nothing said will be judged, and all data will be used anonymously)
1) Movie
2) Evil
3) Book
4) Sexy
5) Politics
6) Game
7) Stylish
8) Cool
9) Terrorist
10) Music
11) Lie
12) Truth
13) Corruption
14) Hero
15) Freedom
Thanks to anyone who takes the time to answer, this will help me a lot with a first hand research requirement that I need. I will be asking these same questions to many people personally, and in other forums as well.

Well I have looked at my collective data so far. Some very interesting trends have come up.
Referring to my physical survey I handed out at our mall (same questions):
roughly 73% of people relate terrorism to islam or the middle east.
Almost 68% of people relate evil to satan, the devil, or a relation.
More than 80% associated music to a pop band
and about 60% of people related corruption to the government, and roughly 28% to money, the rest being unrelated.
Just a little taste of some of the interesting things I've found so far :p
