This seems to be an allusion to the Voight-Kampff test in the movie Blade Runner.  The rest is used to distinguish humans from 'replicas' (artificial humans) by asking questions designed to elicit an emotional response, and then monitoring biological metrics in the respondent.  The idea being that replicas would be unable to maintain a convincing fakery against such a systematized methodology.

Not exactly, because kids with autistic-spectrum disorders can be more sensitive. The only pop-culture example I can think of is Sheldon Cooper's sadness when he learned of Professor Proton's passing. 108.162.249.240 (talk) (please sign your comments with ~~~~)

A better example would be the dog in I Am Legend. Also, the text for the question and for the answers would both have to be distorted slightly. 173.245.50.87 06:02, 11 September 2015 (UTC)

The obvious alusion is Deckard's empathy test on Leon in Blade Runner to determine whether he is human. 108.162.229.30 (talk) (please sign your comments with ~~~~)
