The effect of concert hall color on preference and auditory perception
2021, Applied AcousticsCitation Excerpt :Preference for different colors is a very well-studied yet controversial area. While a universal preference for the color blue is found in some studies [54,62], personal color preference is found to be affected by age [1], gender [32], related objects [63], related emotions [62], and cultural contexts [62]. It is also argued by some researchers that color preference of an individual at different times is related to the person’s mood and the colors’ psychological arousal levels [92], which is related to the psychological “reversal theory” [80].
Volatility and fluctuations in preferences for Red, Yellow and Blue colours are indicators of personality traits and biological status
2019, Medical HypothesesCitation Excerpt :A landmark study [11] laid the foundation for a deep understanding of the subject. Colour perception choices are quite strong and they are dependent on a number of underlying factors such as personality types [12,6,7,8,13,14], ethnic background of the subjects [15–18], age [19–24], gender [25–29], education [30], mental status and information processing in such conditions [31–33]. It has been seen that brain activity is modulated by colour preference which implies a correlation between colour preference and personality traits; and colour preference could be a pervasive aspect of visual processing [34].
Modeling color preference using color space metrics
2018, Vision ResearchCitation Excerpt :The accuracy of the model in predicting new data is quantified as R2 between the model predictions for untrained colors (using the weights from the regression equation calculated from the trained colors) and preferences for those untrained colors. Our scope excludes reviewing and evaluating evidence for factors that influence individual variations, including culture (Choungourian, 1968; Reddy & Bennett, 1985; Saito, 1981, 1996; Yokosawa et al., 2016), sex (Bimler et al., 2014; Eysenck, 1941; Helson & Lansford, 1970; McManus et al., 1981), age (Adams, 1987; Dittmar, 2011; Pereverzeva & Teller, 2004), and ecological associations (Schloss, Strauss, & Palmer, 2013; Schloss et al., 2015), (for reviews, see Bimler et al., 2014; Hurlbert & Owen, 2015; Schloss & Palmer, 2015). Instead, we focus on determining which models are more/less effective for capturing such individual variations, whatever their cause.
A survey on stimuli for visual cortical function assessment in infants
2018, Brain and DevelopmentCitation Excerpt :The emergence of stereopsis was between the ages of 16 and 26 weeks (average age of 20.4 ± 3.5 weeks) with a disparity of 2480″ and the best stereoacuity (229 ± 184″) was detected at an average age of 28.9 ± 6.3 months. Adams [48] evaluated the development of color preferences in 20 newborns, 1- and 3-months-olds and adults using a PL technique and recording their fixation time to stimulations. The infants’ group consisted of newborns with mean age of 3.2 days, 1-month-olds with mean age of 5.1 weeks and 3-months-olds with mean age of 13 weeks.
