Grossmont Cuyamaca College Implicit Association Tests Discussion

On the previous page, we learned about Project Implicit and their Implicit Association Tests (IATs). Here we’ll discuss whether an IAT (Implicit Association Test) is an observational study or an experiment. To submit your initial post, reply to this discussion and answer the question-to-be-investigated (see below). Be sure to briefly explain your answer. (Not sure how to reply to a discussion? See the Canvas Tutorials section at the bottom of this page.)
