The Implicit Association Test (IAT) is a common behavioral paradigm to assess implicit attitudes in various research contexts. In recent years, researchers have sought to collect IAT data remotely using online applications. Compared to laboratory-based assessments, online IAT experiments have several advantages, including widespread administration outside of artificial (i.e., laboratory) environments. Use of survey-software platforms (e.g., Qualtrics) represents an innovative and cost-effective approach that allows researchers to prepare online IAT experiments without any programming expertise. However, there are some drawbacks with the existing survey-software as well as other online IAT preparation tools, such as limited mobile device compatibility and lack of helper functionalities for easy adaptation. To address these issues, we developed an open-source web app (GitHub page: https://github.com/ycui1-mda/qualtrics_iat) for creating mobile-compatible Qualtrics-based IAT experiments and scoring the collected responses. The present study demonstrates the key functionalities of this web app and describes feasibility data that were collected and scored using the app to show the tool's validity. We show that the web app provides a complete and easy-to-adapt toolset for researchers to construct Qualtrics-based IAT experiments and process the derived IAT data.
