PASSAGE
Implicit bias: unconscious attitudes affecting decisions. Studies show resumes with 'white-sounding' names receive more callbacks than identical resumes with 'Black-sounding' names.
What does the resume study demonstrate?
Detailed Explanation
This question requires you to identify evidence that supports a claim. Identical resumes, different names, different callbacks = bias. The best evidence directly and explicitly supports the stated claim without requiring assumptions. Match specific textual details or data points to the claim being made. The correct answer provides clear, direct support. Strong evidence directly addresses the claim without requiring additional interpretation. When evaluating options, look for quotes or data that explicitly support the statement. Weak evidence may be tangentially related but doesn't provide direct proof.
Key Evidence:
