Bias and Discrimination Studies

Bias and discrimination studies examine how prejudiced attitudes and unfair treatment affect individuals and groups based on characteristics like race, gender, or age. These studies analyze the roots of biased beliefs, how they influence decision-making, and their societal impacts. They aim to understand why discrimination persists and develop strategies to promote fairness and equality. By identifying unconscious biases and systemic barriers, these studies help create more inclusive environments, informing policies, training, and interventions to reduce prejudice and ensure all individuals are treated equitably.
