Hello,

I wanted to ensure that I was interpreting my IAT data correctly.

Please correct me if I am wrong, but from my understanding, the D score that we attain from the IAT summary file can indicate how each participant “performed.”
That is, a positive score indicates a higher sorting/association between Target A with attribute A and target B with attribute B. Where as, a negative score would be the opposite.
For example, if my Target A label was Latino and my attribute(s) A were bad, a positive score would indicate faster sorting of Latino and Bad and European and Good (B label and Attribute b).

Given that D scores can range from -2 to 2, would a higher D score indicate a faster sorting/association between Target and Attribute?

Thank you!
Juan
