Answer 1

"according to some research, the degree" of implicit prejudice has declined, but the degree of explicit prejudice keeps it alive under the surface.


Implicit and explicit are two opposite words, the meaning of implicit is, "inferred or saw however not doubtlessly or straightforwardly communicated." whereas explicit means "to completely and unmistakably express something, leaving nothing suggested."
