The National Science Foundation awarded a $138,000 Project Grant to support research on intersectionality and implicit bias from September 2021 through August 2023. The grant was funded through the Social, Behavioral, and Economic Sciences program (CFDA 47.075), which aims to promote basic research and education in social, behavioral and economic sciences. Under this award, the recipient will conduct research and analysis on how intersectional identities and implicit biases intersect. They will likely study how membership in multiple social groups as well as unconscious associations affect people's behaviors and decisions. The place of performance is in San Francisco, California, suggesting an academic or non-profit research institution is involved. The results of this research could provide insights to help reduce discrimination and promote fairness.
