Not only is there a bias in that either no or few AA subjects were tested, there's also a bias in that no foreign students, and importantly no African students were involved either. Finally, their commentary is a non-scientific stretch. The source of this bias as coming from early texts and cultural identifications is just speculation and could be tested by including foreign students (Africans) who have likely not been so exposed. Also the stuff about crimes and their descriptions is gratuitous.
