- 3Studies show participants implicitly associate guilt more strongly with Black defendants than White defendants.

The Solution

## Reveal and Reduce Bias with IAT

The Implicit Association Test (IAT) measures the strength of automatic associations by tracking how quickly participants link words and images.
PeerProbe integrates IATs into pre‑trial questionnaires, enabling attorneys to identify jurors who may unconsciously associate certain races or concepts with guilt or innocence. The test complements demographic and psychographic data to create targeted voir dire strategies.
IAT results raise awareness of implicit biases and help attorneys craft educational voir dire questions that encourage jurors to reflect on their own assumptions.

Benefits

## Why it matters for your firm

### Identify Hidden Biases

Discover implicit attitudes that jurors may not disclose through direct questioning, giving you a more complete picture of potential prejudice.

### Promote Fairness

Use IAT results to balance your panel and mitigate the risk of biased verdicts.

### Holistic View

Combining IAT results with demographic, social‑media and case‑specific data produces a more accurate bias assessment.

### Educate Jurors

IAT results can be used to instruct jurors about implicit bias and its effects, fostering awareness and accountability.

Process

## How IAT Testing Works

1

### Administer the Test

Prospective jurors take a brief online test that asks them to sort words and images quickly; the speed of responses indicates the strength of associations.

2

### Analyse the Results

The system calculates the difference in response times to identify implicit biases and compares them with demographic norms.

3

### Integrate Findings

IAT scores feed into PeerProbe's overall juror profile and bias score, informing voir dire questions and strikes.
