Relationship between physician race preference Implicit Association Test (IAT) score and thrombolysis decisions by patient race. *P < .05, **P = .05–0.11, B values are standardized regression coefficients that describe the magnitude of each relationship that the regression lines represent. IAT bias is a continuous variable represented on the polar ends of the x-axis as low antiblack IAT and high antiblack IAT. Treatment recommendation of thrombolysis is represented on the y-axis and is a dichotomous variable for which 0 means “would not give thrombolysis” and 1 means “would give thrombolysis.” Subpanels A–D represent race preference, general cooperativeness, medical cooperativeness, and the composite IAT measures, respectively
