In Study 1, participants who completed an Implicit Association Test (IAT) showed less implicit prejudice toward individuals with a tattoo and eyeglasses. Study 2 examined if participants would show no implicit prejudice towards individuals with a tattoo and eyeglasses compared to individuals without a tattoo or eyeglasses. In Study 2, a Multicategory Implicit Association Test (MC-IAT) was used to add new stimuli for comparisons. The degree to which implicit prejudice was eliminated was moderated by perceiver's that wear eyeglasses. Eyeglasses on a tattooed person might activate in-group identification for perceivers that currently wear eyeglasses. 2015 text Electronic Thesis http://hdl.handle.net/10150/579047 en_US Copyright © is held by the author.
