Hello,
For my experiment, I edited two copies of the Sexuality IAT script. I edited one copy of the Sexuality IAT script to only display images of straight couples and gay men couples, and used this as a gay men IAT. I edited the other copy of the Sexuality IAT script to only display images of straight couples and lesbian women couples, and used this as a lesbian women IAT. I administered both IATs, counterbalanced for order, to all of my participants.
Having collected all of my data, I am now looking at combining participants from both IATs collected from each participant to reflect their attitudes towards both gay men and lesbian women as one D_biep score. Could I do this by just adding the lesbian women IAT d_biep score and the gay men IAT d_biep score and dividing it by two? I do not see any reason why this would be methodologically inaccurate, but I would very much appreciate a second opinion on this. No one in my department is familiar with the IAT scoring procedure, and cannot advise me on this.
Thank you,
Julian
