Implicit Prejudice – Implicit Association Test
For this assignment, write a paper of 250-500 words on your experience with the Implicit Association Test (IAT), located on the Project Implicit website. Select “Demonstration,” then “Go to the Demonstration Tests.”
The Implicit Association Test (IAT) is a popular and respected method for measuring implicit attitudes and beliefs. In this exercise, you are to try an IAT (one on racial bias and one on gender bias) for yourself. There are many possible tests available at the website, but the ones named “Racial Bias Black/White Adults” and “Gender Bias” will be the most pertinent to this week’s module.
