  1. People have an implicit bias towards binary logic. Computers are great and all, but have you noticed they break and fail all the time? Binary logic is not the best system. "You are either with us or against us" is a fallacy, they are trying to trick you. 🚥🚦🚥🚦🚥🚦🚥🚦🚥🚦🚥🚦🚥🚦You use "real world logic" every day, and it's 3-valued. They tried binary traffic signals in the beginning but switched very quickly to 3

    Also the Liar Paradox is solvable using a field extension which creates (like i^2 = -1) the complex truth value "I don't know"

  6. Dr Philip Polkinghorne is the latest in a long line of convicted criminals who fit the image of 'respectable citizen', not the reactionary caricature of what "criminals" look like (poor, underemployed, brown, etc);

    Yet these inaccurate "law and order" stereotypes persist. Why? Implicit bias. The same bias allows governments to cancel programs based on researched evidence for the causes of crime, in favour of 3 Strikes approaches.

  7. A dissertation reports a 5-min #bias training didn't reliably improve #implicitBias test scores (N = 120): digitalcommons.liberty.edu/doc

    In 2019 I argued this isn't surprising: doi.org/10.1007/s11229-019-021

    Since, longer training hasn't worked either: doi.org/10.1177/05390184241230

  8. #Onboarding's been net positive, but a required 3rd party educational #video reminded me why we wrote that, "Scholars in the field cringe whenever we experience another mandated training suggesting that #implicitBias is entirely #unconscious, a stable trait in each of us that we can measure with a test..., or the primary cause of #prejudice in the #workplace."

  9. Surprised this conclusion survived #peerReview: a "program succeeded in promoting positive attitudes and beliefs" about "#implicitBias #education ...among ...police" (N = 145).

    The 1st survey was online, but the 2nd was in-person. And the 1st survey's questions weren't about the same trainings as the 2nd survey's.

    So any differences in answers are as explainable by differences between the surveys as they are by one #education program.

  10. Just got a note from FB saying they removed five posts from my personal page, for breaking community rules.

    They only went after my shares of my Grand Magazine articles, only removing those featuring non-white people and their foods.

  11. How's the Language of Thought hypothesis doing? 

    Alex Madva reports, “the downfall of [alternative] models has not occasioned the uncontested reign of propositional alternatives. Leading propositional theorists continue to uncover effects more naturally explained by nonpropositional processes, or at least uneasily assimilated into prevailing propositional theories...". doi.org/10.1017/S0140525X23001

  12. Jules Holroyd and Kathy Puddifoot are organising a reading group on #ImplicitBias where they will be discussing the papers to appear in the special issue of our journal on the topic.

  13. Jesus. My 'liberal' NIMBY-esque neighborhood of Rockridge is starting civilian 'safety' patrols. WTF.

    From the Q&A in the local newsletter:

    "What will the driver do if they see an incident in progress? - Our drivers' primary duty is to observe, support, report, and when necessary serve as expert witness. When they see unusual activity, rather than make assumptions, they approach the scene in a friendly manner and ask if someone requires assistance before determining the next best response."

    I wonder how much time their civilian drivers have spent interrogating their 'assumptions.'

  14. Very big medical interpreting conference going on yesterday and today. I attended an excellent session yesterday on #ImplicitBias in medicine and how you can see its negative impacts in differential rates of disease among different ethnic groups.

    And then I realized everything we were talking about would be labeled "CRT" and the entire panel would be illegal under laws introduced in over 40 states.

  15. This Friday you can join my online masterclass on #implicitbias and #inclusion. We’ll cover the limitations of the brain, our main cognitive & social biases, how they influence us to make irrational and often discriminatory decisions, and what to do about it (especially for recruitment and promotion processes).

    This Friday at 8am Pacific time (5pm CEST). More information and registration below:

  16. #ImplicitBias isn’t “unconscious”?

    “…participants in all 17 studies were able to accurately predict the patterns of their IAT results (…b = .44) …across samples, settings [online vs. in-person lab studies], countries …, and languages…. [These] results strengthen the hypothesis that cognitions reflected on implicit evaluations are accessible to conscious awareness.”

    Absolutely. #SystemicRacism induces a lot of #ImplicitBias. By which I mean, regardless of whether CPS needs to be called, surely they are called on/for Black folx more than others. I mean, I'm not an expert on that data, but it would not or does not surprise me at all.

  18. I heart the implicit bias in PR and Marketing: there's no possible way a Canadian food writer can be anything but white and/or anything but ignorant of non-white food cultures. A white Millennial PR just "invited" me to learn about this new, foreign thing called Indian food culture.

  19. *sigh*
    Just as there will always be women helping perpetuate #patriarchy, there will always be Black people helping to perpetuate #SystemicRacism, in this case by writing an incredibly stupid op-ed column which, either through ignorance or malice, entirely misunderstands and misrepresents the concept of #ImplicitBias and the point of educating people about it.

  20. Implicit racial bias re: Black women and handguns in national survey -- 62% surveyed said Black women had experience using handguns when only 21% ACTUALLY did.

  22. What impacts #implicitBias most?

    Pre-registered meta-analysis (N = 23255) found "relational information (how stimuli are related...)" was less dominant over "co-occurrence info[. (what] stimuli [were] paired)" within individuals (vs. between) or when co-occurrence info. was manipulated (vs. controlled)...

    ...ya know, the conditions we usually care about for #debiasing.

    (So co-occurrence info. may still be the primary mechanism/intervention of interest).
