After reviewing the Preliminary Information, click on “I wish to proceed” at the bottom of the page.
On the next page, select “Race IAT”.
Next, there will be a series of items on your demographic information. For our purposes, you can “decline to answer” those items. (But it helps the research project if you provide this data).
After you complete the experiment, there a three more survey items. For our purposes, you can “decline to answer” those items. (But it helps the research project if you provide this data).
After the three survey items, there are a few more questionnaire items, For our purposes, you can “decline to answer” those items. (But it helps the research project if you provide this data).
You will then get to the Debriefing page, where you will get your result with a brief explanation.
Note the explanation, answer the two items after it, and submit.
You will be on the last page of the study. Select “print page” on the bottom left hand side of the page. Next to “Destination” in the print dialogue, you can select “save as…PDF or to Google Drive”. Either is fine. I need you to have a way to share your results.
Once you have completed this activity, the Module 6 Discussion Topic “Implicit Attitudes” will become visible. Follow the prompts laid out there.
For example, were you surprised, upset, ambivalent, pleased…? Describe your reaction and give a brief explanation of why you felt that way.
Then, make explicit use of two or more of these key terms from your text to provide a plausible description of the circumstances and experiences that might have led to your test results. A good application of theory will describe actual experiences but in terms of what each theory highlights as key features of behavior. Be concrete.
