Harvesting implicit group attitudes and beliefs from a demonstration web site.
Published version of a preprint
Abstract
Respondents at an Internet site completed over 600,000 tasks between October 1998 and April 2000 measuring attitudes toward and stereotypes of social groups. Their responses demonstrated, on average, implicit preference for White over Black and young over old and stereotypic associations linking male terms with science and career and female terms with liberal arts and family. The main purpose was to provide a demonstration site at which respondents could experience their implicit attitudes and stereotypes toward social groups. Nevertheless, the data collected are rich in information regarding the operation of attitudes and stereotypes, most notably the strength of implicit attitudes, the association and dissociation between implicit and explicit attitudes, and the effects of group membership on attitudes and stereotypes.

Dementia-related anxiety is likely to be exacerbated by strong implicit negative biases against older adults, culturally embedded age-related stereotypes, and dementia-related stigma.
“Therefore, based on the existence of strong implicit negative biases against older adults observable in adults of all ages (Nosek et al., 2002), culturally embedded age-related stereotypes (Cuddy et al., 2005), and dementia-related stigma (Moniz-Cook & Manthorpe, 2009; Prince, Bryce, & Ferri, 2011), DRA is likely to be exacerbated.”

Most negative attitudes toward aging relate to older adults' cognitive abilities, and these attitudes can occur without any indication of cognitive decline.
“Furthermore, most of the negative attitudes towards aging are related to cognitive abilities of older adults, and these negative attitudes can occur even without any indication of cognitive decline (Cuddy et al., 2005; Nosek et al., 2002; Whitbourne & Seed, 2002), and age is, indeed, the biggest risk factor for dementia (Chen, Lin, & Chen, 2009).”

Firmly embedded age-related stereotypes are prevalent across different groups of people.
“Nosek, Banaji, and Greenwald (2002) reported that firmly embedded age-related stereotypes are prevalent across different groups of people.”

Many people hold strong negative attitudes toward older adults, especially regarding their memory ability.
“Previous studies have revealed that many people hold strong negative attitudes toward older adults, especially in regards to their memory ability (Cuddy et al., 2005; Nosek et al., 2002; Whitbourne & Seed, 2002)”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
