Jett and Joey perform an AT task to investigate any implicit biases they hold between political affiliation and ethnic identity. In the task, the stereotypical bias holds that ethnic minorities affiliate with progressive political parties, while ethnic majorities affiliate with conservative political parties. Jet's citterence score was 0.5 seconds, while Joey's difference score was -0.1 seconds. 1) State and explain the direction of the implicit bias held by Jeff and Joey based on the difference scores above. 2) The researchers realize a mistake in their analysis and correct Jeff's difference score to -0.0005 sec. How would the researchers now interpret this difference to infer Jeff's bias. 3) What causes a person with an implicit bias towards the stereotype to respond slower on inconsistent trials than consistent trials?
