Implicit bias: what every pediatrician should know about the effect of bias on health and future directions.
This article discusses the role in implicit bias and its effect on health outcomes. The most highly regarded tool to measure implicit bias is the Implicit Association Test (IAT). While there is limited evidence showing an association between implicit bias and health outcomes, existing publications do show clear associations. The authors discuss the need for future research that relies on pre- and post-IAT measurements to examine the effect of bias training among healthcare providers.
