Goal
To explore the topics of subtle racism and implicit attitudes in a hands-on way that allows students to assess whether they have hidden racial biases.
Project Implicit Overview
Implicit Association Tests
Reflection - you will NOT be asked to share your results.
- Do you believe your results were accurate? Why or why not?
- What was your reaction when you learned your results?
- Prior to the IAT, data on racial (or other preferences) were collected by asking the participant to self-report their prejudices and preferences about race. How do you think the data from the IAT compares with the self-report data?
- Did you use any mental “tricks” to try and be less biased while taking the tests?
