Three years ago, Greenwald, McGhee, and Schwartz (1998) presented a new method to measure differential evaluative association of two target concepts: the Implicit Association Test (IAT). It has been asserted that the IAT allows for the assessment of implicit attitudes by comparing response times in two combined discrimination tasks. Although the distribution and employment of this method has been quite successful, the processes underlying IAT-effects, as well as the psychometric properties of specific IAT-variants, have received relatively little attention up to now. The articles included in the present special issue especially focus on these aspects.
三年前,格林沃尔德、麦吉和施瓦茨(1998年)提出了一种测量两个目标概念之间差异评价关联的新方法:内隐联想测验(IAT)。有人断言,内隐联想测验通过比较两个组合辨别任务中的反应时间来评估内隐态度。尽管这种方法的传播和应用相当成功,但到目前为止,内隐联想测验效应背后的过程以及特定内隐联想测验变体的心理测量特性相对而言很少受到关注。本期特刊中的文章特别关注这些方面。
