Amazing, honest blog by Chad Drake and his work with the Implicit Relational Assessment Procedure (#IRAP), a variant of the Implicit Association Test (#IAT).

Conclusion:
"I wasted most of my research career on a measure that has been and continues to be misused and actually seems to be just about useless."

Joshua Wright tried #ChatGPTwith his multiple choice exam and it got an 80%.

I tied a few so far. This is the first one it got correct. #IAT

This article reports multiple studies on anti-Muslim attitudes.
The data do not clearly support the main claim, but some results are interesting.

Most interesting for me:
It is the first PUBLISHED study that relates an IAT to shooter bias in the weapons' task.
No significant main effect!!!

This confirms our finding with real police officers (Andersen et al.).

@mikulas_peksa Pominu-li blábolení elit, tak xenofobie v ČR byla "doložena" #IAT testy, zhusta publikovanými v západních médiích. Tyto testy nejsou zatím bez výhrad přijímané ve vědecké komunitě, mají kulturní a historické závislosti, které jinde rezonují zcela jinak (aneb nestejná sémantická ontologie).

Dělat jakékoliv závěry z toho, že měl nějaký brunátný pán "den blbec" a že "ČR má pověst xenofobní země" je dost odvážné... 🧐
