Implicit Cognition : Implications for Global Health Disparities - 07/09/15

Implicit cognition, or our unconscious thoughts and beliefs, is an important predictor of our behaviors and decisions. It also predicts outcomes related to physical and mental health at the level of the individual and influences the dynamics of the patient-physician relationship. This article outlines specific ways in which implicit measures of cognition predict vulnerabilities to adverse health and contribute to social disparities in health and discusses important future directions for this body of research.
