Abstract

Research on the effects of teachers' prejudiced attitudes about students typically involves the use of self-reports to assess these attitudes. However, these self-report measures have some flaws, especially because social desirability is induced when teachers are to rate their level of prejudice. In this contribution, we want to illustrate the use of implicit measures in this type of research. Two methods that were developed by social psychologists, the implicit association test and priming, will be introduced. Research on the effects of teachers' prejudiced attitudes on student achievement shows that implicit measures of prejudiced attitudes - contrary to self-report measures - are related to achievement outcomes of students from specific groups.
