Q2. What are the future works in this paper?
Future research may find effective interventions that could leverage multiple mechanisms simultaneously, providing much greater impact than they would individually.
Q3. What is the effect of cognitive elaboration on implicit attitudes?
Degree of cognitive elaboration may influence implicit attitudes through deliberative reasoning, whereby newly-gained knowledge leads to the activation of positive associations with attitude objects.
Q4. What is the direct method to change implicit attitudes?
Perhaps the most direct method to change implicit attitudes is evaluative conditioning (Bar-Anan, De Houwer, & Nosek, 2010; De Houwer, Thomas, & Baeyens, 2001; Karpinski & Hilton, 2001; Olson & Fazio, 2006).
Q5. What is the effect of imagining counterstereotypical exemplars on implicit prejudice?
Reductions in implicit prejudice can even occur by imagining counterstereotypical exemplars (Turner & Crisp, 2010; Vezzali, Capozza, Giovannini, & Stathi, 2011), or by considering negative and positive events associated with the ingroup and outgroup (Brauer, Er-rafiy, Kawakami, & Phills, 2012; Sassenberg & Wieber, 2005).
Q6. What is the effect of having an outgroup roommate on implicit prejudice?
Outside of the laboratory, a seminar on prejudice and intergroup conflict was associated with reduced implicit prejudice at the end of a semester (Rudman et al., 2001), and having an outgroup roommate was related to decreased implicit prejudice after one school quarter (Shook & Fazio, 2008).
Q7. What is the role of a QUAD model in reducing implicit prejudice?
Experimental ingenuity, analytic techniques like QUAD modeling (Conrey et al., 2005), and improvements in the taxonomy of psychological processes will help further clarify the mechanisms underlying implicit prejudice reduction.
Q8. What is the effective method of reducing implicit prejudice?
Intergroup contact is the most well-studied means of reducingexplicit prejudice (Allport, 1954; Pettigrew & Tropp, 2006), and it also appears to reduce implicit prejudice (Aberson, Porter, & Gaffney, 2008; Dasgupta & Rivera, 2008).
Q9. What can increase implicit prejudice for groups associated with anger and disgust?
Anger and disgust can increase implicit prejudice for groups associated with those emotions (i.e., anger for Arabs, and disgust for gay people; Dasgupta, DeSteno, Williams, & Hunsinger, 2009).
Q10. What can be done to disrupt the link between implicit prejudice and behavior?
The link between implicit prejudice and behavior can be disrupted with a variety of methods, such as changing the relevance of a prejudiced attitude to the situation or by reducing the accessibility of a prejudiced attitude.
Q11. What is the meaning of evaluative conditioning?
Evaluative conditioning provides experience linking concepts with attributes that differ from their preexisting attitudes to retrain or create alternative attitudes.
