Description

The Implicit Association Test sold us all on a neat story that wasn't totally right. As it turns out, the test that introduced the concept of implicit bias to the world is kind of a sham.The IAT doesn't actually measure prejudice; it's been debunked and rejected by experts; and the test's creators have even backtracked on all of their original claims... but for some reason, it seems like nobody knows that. We need to face the facts and correct course.Your listen next list:Do You Know the Shocking Hidden Impact of Stereotypes? on Apple & SpotifyAll the Stuff No One Ever Taught You About Intersectionality on Apple & SpotifySources: The Cut, Psychology's Racism-Measuring Tool Isn't Up to the Job; The Quick Fix by Jesse Singal; APA, Attributions of Implicit Prejudice/ "Would Jesse Jackson 'Fail' the Implicit Association Test?"To support Marie and get exclusive resources, head to patreon.com/mariebeech.
