Implicit bias training (or unconscious bias training) programs are designed to help individuals become aware of their implicit biases and equip them with tools and strategies to act objectively, limiting the influence of their implicit biases.[1] Some researchers say implicit biases are learned stereotypes that are automatic, seemingly associative,[2] unintentional, deeply ingrained, universal, and can influence behavior.[3]
A critical component of implicit bias training is creating awareness of implicit bias, and some recent evidence has indicated growth in the understanding of implicit biases.[4] Since 1998, the online Implicit-Association Test (IAT) has provided a platform for the general public to assess their implicit biases. Although the IAT measure has come under severe scrutiny regarding scientific reliability and efficacy,[5] it has also sparked a conversation about implicit bias in both popular media and the scientific community.[6]
Many implicit bias training programs have been created in recent years.[7] Facebook designed a webpage to make implicit bias training videos widely available. Google has put about 60,000 employees through a 90-minute implicit bias training program. The United States Department of Justice has trained 28,000 employees on techniques to combat implicit bias.[8]
