Disability Awareness: Implicit Bias

(From: Perception Institute)

When we have attitudes towards people or associate stereotypes with them without our conscious knowledge.

The mind sciences have found that most of our actions occur without our conscious thoughts, allowing us to function in our extraordinarily complex world. This means, however, that our implicit biases often predict how we’ll behave more accurately than our conscious values.
