NCSC: Research

	Search REF website \| Updated on


Existing research indicates that all individuals develop implicit attitudes and stereotypes as a result of their experiences with the world. Because implicit biases are unconscious, they can affect behaviors and attitudes in ways, both positive and negative, unknown to the individual. Phase II of the Campaign will work with three states to develop and deliver learning programs on implicit bias to judges and court staff. Lessons learned from each state's efforts will inform the production of resources for all states. Those interested in learning more about implicity bias are referred to the Resources provided below.
