Mediators and negotiators must know themselves well — to guard against biases that can affect neutrality for the former or influence decision making for the latter. I’ve therefore encouraged readers to get to know themselves better by taking one of the Implicit Association Tests (IAT) available at Project Implicit.

A new IAT is now available, one which tests for implicit associations about policy, the government, and the market. You can access the Policy IAT at the Project on Law and Mind Sciences at Harvard University or via The Situationist, a social science blog that provides a forum for exploring the effect of situational forces on human behavior.
