Completed
An ad hoc committee of the National Academies will plan a one and one half day workshop to advance the understanding of implicit bias. The workshop may: 1) consider the current state of scientific literature; 2) discuss the implications of scientific research on implicit bias for law, policy and institutional decision-making; 3) identify possible areas for future research; 4) explore whether there are social or cognitive interventions (e.g., education, awareness-raising, priming, inter-group contact) capable of disrupting or overriding ordinary mechanisms of bias formation; and 5) review what institutional structures, procedures, or practices tend to minimize its influence.
