Abstract
Two studies investigated whether language affects the perception of skin tone (Study 1) and if skin tone affects the perception of language (Study 2). Results revealed that language biased the perception of skin tone but skin tone did not bias the perception of language, supporting the language social priority hypothesis
Implicit Bias
