it is thought that societies with conflicting beliefs will more likely have cultural bias as it is dependent on the group's standing in society, where the social constructions affect how a problem is produced. one example of cultural bias within the context of sociology can be seen in a study done at the university of california by jane r. mercer of how test "validity", "bias", and "fairness" in different cultural belief systems affect one's future in a pluralistic society. a definition of the cultural bias was given as "the extent that the test contains cultural content that is generally peculiar to the members of one group but not to the members of another group", which leads to a belief that "the internal structure of the test will differ for different cultural groups". in addition, the different types of errors made on culture-biased tests are dependent on different cultural groups. this idea progressed to the conclusion that a non-cultural-test will represent the ability of a population as intended and will not reflect the abilities of a group that is not represented.
