Fifteen percent (15%) of your grade will be based on your reflection and
analysis essay on a Harvard University Implicit Association Test, available online at:
https://implicit.harvard.edu/implicit/selectatest.html An implicit association test
measures your implicit (not-necessarily-conscious) association of negative and
positive attrributes of people who may be similar or different from you in
attitudes, experiences or life situations. The idea behind an implicit association
test is that there may be a difference between our conscious and our unconsious
beliefs about instances, examples or representations of diversity. Your assignment
is to take ONE implicit association test from the following categories on the
Harvard IAT above:
Arab-Muslim, Age, Religion, Gender-Career, Race, Sexuality, Disability, Skin Tone,
Gender-Science, Asian American, Native American (Pick any topic other than gender career, gender career is not allowed!!!!!!!!!!)
Then, after taking the test you will write in class a typed, double-spaced reflection essay of 500-750 words, based on the question below for this assignment. The essay is used to assess the achievement of the learning outcome that “Students will be able to describe the role of social diversity in shaping their own attitudes or values regarding appreciation, tolerance or equality of others.”
First, print out the IAT Test resuts and attach to your essay.
Please explain, a.) what the implicit association test claimed were the implicit
preferences of the student on the topic selected, between the subtopics within
the assessment. (For example, the Religion test evaluated the test-taker’s relative
views of Christianity, Hinduism, Judaism and Islam; the essay here would show
what order the IAT indicated were the test-takers’ preference between these
four). And, b) assume, just for the purposes of completing the essay (and pretend
if you need to), that the results do in fact reflect real conditioning in the form of
cultural, social, personal and generational events that have a cause and effect
relationship with your test scores. To achieve the best grade your answer will
explain what these events might be if the test results are or were accurate. This
exercise does not assume that you agree with the test results, or that you agree
that the results of implicit association are correct in your case. Whether you agree
or not, you are asked to explain what forms of conditioning would cause a person
to have those results if they were in fact conditioned in a social, cultural or
generational way by them. You must answer both a) and b) clearly and logically to
score a 5.
YOU MUST SEND ME A COPY OF THE IAT TEST RESULTS AS WELL
