The following men were given an IAT sexism test and also asked if they believe that men and women should be treated equally. The men were put into a bogus situation in the lab and were told by the researcher that their behavior was the product of unconscious sexism. Then, in a seemingly unrelated situation they had the opportunity to interact with a woman. The speeds of the men’s responses were timed. Who would have the slowest response time? Larry, who scored high on the IAT and believes that men and women should not be treated equally. Dale, who scored low on the IAT and believes that men and women should not be treated equally. Jim, who scored high on the IAT and believes that men and women should be treated equally. They should all have about the same response time.
