Implicit Biases and Agency (IBA)
1. Implicit biases. The discussion will be based on papers addressing three different kinds of questions:
(i) What is the nature of implicit biases as a type of mental state?
(ii) How can we modulate implicit biases?
(iii) Are we responsible for our implicit biases?
2. The nature and mechanistic underpinnings of agentive phenomenology. Here the focus will be on the ways that conscious experiences associated with action control may inform psychological theories regarding the role of consciousness for action.
