Results of Bayesian meta-analyses probing the mean levels of implicit hair attitudes, self trait judgments, societal trait judgments, and legal judgments among African American and White American participants (Studies 1–4)

	African American participants		White American participants
	Cohen’s d	BF10	Cohen’s d	BF10
Black hair attitude IAT	0.22 [0.12; 0.31]	7.72 × 103	0.68 [0.64; 0.73]	6.42 × 10191
Self trait judgments	− 0.63 [− 0.73; − 0.55]	2.32 × 1031	− 0.31 [− 0.33; − 0.28]	2.30 × 1039
Societal trait judgments	1.42 [1.34; 1.56]	1.80 × 10110	1.09 [1.01; 1.13]	5.33 × 10344
Legal judgments	− 1.85 [− 1.98; − 1.73]	1.85 × 10149	− 1.15 [− 1.21; − 1.11]	4.75 × 10377

Cohen’s d effect sizes are scored such that more positive scores indicate higher levels of bias in favor of Eurocentric hair texture. 95-percent HDIs (highest density intervals) are reported in square brackets. BF₁₀ refers to Bayes Factors providing a relative measure of evidence in favor of the alternative hypothesis (μ ≠ 0) over the null hypothesis (μ = 0)
