Hello, Lbroc001, and welcome to Wikipedia! My name is Ian and I work with the Wiki Education Foundation; I help support students who are editing as part of a class assignment.

I hope you enjoy editing here. If you haven't already done so, please check out the student training library, which introduces you to editing and Wikipedia's core principles. You may also want to check out the Teahouse, a community of Wikipedia editors dedicated to helping new users. Below are some resources to help you get started editing.

Article Selection and Critique
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Angry_Black_Woman This article is closely linked to prejudice and bias but the article needs serious work in terms of how it relates to bias and prejudice. There is a serious lack of research included in the article and doesn't represent a very neutral understanding of the topic. In the talk pages, there are have been complaints about how the article is portrayed and that it should be moved to Urban dictionary. Incorporating more social psychological research about the concept and its effect on African American women might be beneficial if done in a neutral and empirically focused way.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Implicit-association_test What this article is really missing is a better depiction of an application in real life. Further, there is little information about how this implicit bias manifests in our everyday lives. I also think that the article fails to provide a successful counter-argument as to why the IAT may not be useful. More information about its limitations are needed and significant expansions on the IAT's reliability and validity are needed.
