Episode Two: Isn't It Ironic? (with Dr. Michael Inzlicht)

Tolu and Kristina discuss the possible ironic effects of
anti-prejudice interventions with Dr. Michael Inzlicht, a
psychology professor at the University of Toronto Scarborough. Is
it possible these interventions may actually end up increasing
prejudice? They also talk briefly about the Implicit Association
Test. Does the test actually produce reliable and valid results?
The terms of the Episode (TOTEs) are Intrinsic and Extrinsic
Motivation.
