Noba Updates Coming December 2021

Posted December 8, 2021

Noba reviews materials on an ongoing basis and makes changes based on new research findings, changes in APA format, and other considerations. In 2020 and 2021 we have looked at diversity, equity, and inclusion issues, among others. To that effect, we are going to make major revisions to the Prejudice, Discrimination, and Stereotyping module. Although we will keep the core content the same, we will change the language and framing of the module. Specifically, we will:

-- change the language that suggested that overt racism is a historical, and not a contemporary, phenomenon

-- include more examples of bias throughout the module

-- place stereotyping within the larger context of cognitive categorization

We will make revisions to all of the ancillary instructor materials such as the test bank to bring these materials in line with the revised module. We believe these changes discuss this aspect of psychological science within the context of modern society. We assume the instructors will augment the module with local news stories or other engaging activities that help illustrate main points for students and make the content feel relevant. We anticipate these changes taking place on the website by 12/20/21.

Thank you for using Noba
