Bezyak, Jill; Moser, Erin; Chan, Fong; Iwanaga, Kanako
Rehabilitation Research, Policy, and Education, v34 n3 p159-175 2020
Purpose: The present study examined patterns of demographic characteristics that are predictive of people's automatic preference for people without disabilities over people with disabilities. Method: Predictions of automatic preference for people without disabilities were investigated among 41,789 individuals who volunteered to complete the Disability Implicit Association Test (D-IAT) at the Project Implicit website (https://implicit.harvard.edu/). Results: Results indicate that men over 55 without a disability, who scored neutral or high on explicit preference for people without disabilities, who are religious and conservative, are likely to have higher automatic and explicit preference for people without disabilities. Conclusions: Results of the present study provide support for the use of implicit association measures to assess latent attitudes toward people with and without disabilities.
