Summary
In this section, we reassess the value of explicit prejudice measures. P.J. Henry starts this discussion by reviewing critiques of implicit prejudice measures and points to the overwhelming evidence of the power of explicit measures to predict important outcomes. To date, implicit measures have not yet been shown to be similarly capable. Henry explains how the “implicit revolution” was founded on the claim that explicit measures are useless, yet this is clearly not so.
