I've used the IAT in class and got good results. It makes people uncomfortable though because we would all like to think we're not racist and the IAT generally debunks this idea. I use the IAT in conjunction with a piece on racism in the English language (let me know if you need the site for this). These go good together because students will often say that racism in the language (e.g. black balled, black sheep, white lie etc) doesn't have any impact.....hmmm, the IAT would say well maybe so!

The Implicit Administration Test (IAT) and the author spent considerable time discussing the Race IAT. I was wondering who has used this in class and how to handle the ethical dilemma of presenting this research. Also, what kind of criticism it has drawn. Thanks!
