The implicit association test (iat) shows that Sarah "has a stereotype that men are stronger than women".

The IAT is a test used in social psychology which is designed to measure a person’s association between mental representations of objects. In this case, Sarah responded faster when strong and male are paired together as compared to when strong and female is paired together.
