Summary Measures of Implicit Association Test and Explicit Bias Scores

Bias Measure Mean SD

D-Scorea 0.46 (0.37)
Explicit Bias Score - All Questionsb 2.05 (0.59)
Explicit Bias Score - Attitudes 2.16 (0.64)
Explicit Bias Score - PCDU 2.17 (0.72)
Explicit Bias Score - PWUDDHC 1.93 (0.78)

SD = standard deviation; PCDU = Perceived Control Over Drug Use; PWUDDHC = PWUD Deserve Health Care

a

D-Score definition: implicit association score, measured as the mean difference divided by the overall standard deviation between trial blocks, ranging from −2 to +2.

b

Explicit bias survey scores were based on 5-Point Likert scale in which a score of 1 represents the least negative and 5 represents the most negative explicit bias.
