隐性群体间偏见已经被证明会以许多令人不安的方式影响社会行为,从在计算机模拟中“射杀”黑人和白色男性的决策差异,到对简历和简历的不平等性别评估。这是一个困难的问题,代理人是否以及以何种方式对受内隐偏见影响的行为负责。我认为,在典型的情况下,代理人负责这些行为的意义上说,行为是“归因于”他们。也就是说,受内隐偏见影响的行为反映了一个人作为道德代理人的身份。
Implicit intergroup biases have been shown to impact social behavior in many unsettling ways, from disparities in decisions to "shoot" black and white men in a computer simulation to unequal gender-based evaluations of resumes and CVs. It is a difficult question whether, and in what way, agents are responsible for behaviors affected by implicit biases. I argue that in paradigmatic cases agents are responsible for these behaviors in the sense that the behavior is "attributable" to them. That is, behaviors affected by implicit biases reflect upon who one is as a moral agent.
