Testing the distribution of color sensitivity among children, the influence of age on sensitivity, distribution, and sex differences, the author used the Nela Test and the Ishihara Test, on the right and left eyes separately of 487 girls and 448 boys ranging in age from 7 to 16 (first grade through eighth) in three schools in Baltimore, one an upper-class school, another a middle-class, and the third a lower-class (socially). A table of the results which had been obtained by Favre, Feri, Holmgren, Donders, Daae, Magnus, Borthen, Fontenay, Cohn, Nagel, Jeffries, Schmitz, Dor, and Minder is given, along with 6 tables by the author and one graph of his distributions. Girls are more sensitive to colors than are boys. After the age of eight, the color defects, as between boys and girls, are fairly constant. The results for the left eye correlate positively and highly with those for the right eye, and there is a high coefficient of reliability. Those children missing less than 2 triplets (of the Nela Test) are classed as" normal"; those missing more than two but less than four are called" color-weak"; those missing more than four but less than ten are" doubtfully color-blind"; and those missing in excess of ten are definitely" color-blind". The latter group comprises 1.25 per cent. of girls and 4.2 per cent. of boys, although differentiating between the defects in right and left eyes causes the percentages to vary from those just quoted.(PsycInfo Database Record (c) 2022 APA, all rights reserved)
