(IAT) and measures difference in response times in milliseconds, capturing rapid data that cannot be consciously controlled.34 It is publicly available online at https://implicit.harvard.edu and has many options for bias-pairing tests. In contrast, explicit bias is typically measured using self-report such as “temperature sliding scales” to assess feelings towards a stereotyped group. These processes are largely independent of each other35, such that…
