Question 1
pts
Which statement defines implicit bias?
Consciously held attitudes and thoughts about a person or group
Attitudes or beliefs that we develop in an unconscious manner
Ideas or preferences that are deliberate and can be identified and communicated
Core values and personal beliefs which cannot be changed
Implicit bias (also called unconscious bias) refers to attitudes, beliefs, or stereotypes that we
develop that affects our understanding, actions, and decisions in an unconscious manner. Explicit
biases are ideas, preferences, and beliefs that are deliberate and can be identified and
communicated. Explicit biases are consciously held attitudes and thoughts about a person or
group. Core values and personal beliefs can be changed if one desires to change them; however,
this is not the definition of implicit bias.
Question 2
pts
Implicit bias results from which of the following?
Bad influences
Lack of experience
Lack of training
Automatic brain processing
Implicit bias is the result of automatic brain processing of programmed guidelines and rules that
the brain learns based on experience and uses for decisions that may not need or permit
deliberate consideration. Bad influences, a lack of experience, and a lack of training do not
result in implicit bias.
, Question 3
pts
According to System I level thinking, what percentage of information is processed unconsciously
by the brain?
5%
50%
75%
95%
System I thinking accounts for 95% of our decision making and is associated with unconscious,
automatic, “fast,” and emotional processing of information. This type of unconscious, fast
automatic brain processing is believed to be the root cause of implicit bias.
Question 4
pts
All of the characteristics about bias are true EXCEPT:
We tend to hold implicit biases that favor our own “in group,” and against our perceived “out
groups” and resist the unfamiliar.
Implicit associations do not necessarily align with our declared beliefs.
Implicit biases are fixed and therefore cannot be unlearned through corrective actions.
Unchecked implicit biases can evolve and become explicit biases.
Explicit biases are dangerous since they are conscious thoughts dominated by faulty reasoning.
