Visit Project Implicit: https://implicit.harvard.edu/implicit/takeatest.html. Implicit Association Tests (IATs) try to measure the test-takers implicit bias. What is the difference between implicit and explicit bias? Does someone with implicit bias against a group necessarily have explicit bias?
2. Take the Race IAT. What was your result? What was your reaction to your results when you saw them? Do you think they were accurate? Explain why you felt this way. Note: We are asking you to be honest about any implicit biases you may have, but we want you to be inquisitive about them. Where do those biases come from? Are they fair?
3. Provide an argument defending the IAT as a good way to measure implicit bias. Then, provide an argument against the IATs ability to measure implicit bias.
