Outsmarting Implicit Bias: A Project at Harvard University
www.outsmartinghumanminds.orgOver the past 50 years, psychological research has ushered in new understanding of the human mind: that it is just as fallible as it is extraordinary. The same mind capable of incredible feats of ingenuity and compassion is also capable of decisions that defy rationality and go against our best interests as individuals and organizations. So how does the mind work – and what are its blindspots? Outsmarting Implicit Bias (OIB) is a media series that explores the quirky and sometimes surprising aspects of how our minds work, with a focus on how it can lead to implicit bias. Founded by Professor Mahzarin Banaji, OIB uses videos, podcasts, and short articles - all freely available to the general public - to bring together growing public desire to understand and improve ways to overcome implicit bias with insights from the mind sciences. The hope of this project is that by knowing the science, we can take steps to recognize and even conquer our blindspots. Our minds can learn and change. Knowledge is only a first step, but by understanding our minds, we can take steps – as individuals and as organizations – to change our behavior and policies and improve the decisions we make in life and at work.
