颜色是一种普遍存在的知觉刺激,但相对较少的经验,甚至更少的理论工作存在于颜色和心理功能。已经进行的研究往往缺乏科学的精确性和严谨性,这在心理学的其他研究领域是显而易见的。作为回应,我们已经着手开发一个一般模型的颜色和心理功能的颜色在上下文理论,我们在这里提出。我们还概述了从这个理论框架中出现的几条经验工作,从成就背景中的红色研究开始,继续研究红色的从属关系背景,最后研究其他背景中的其他颜色。此外,我们阐明了需要仔细注意的事实,即颜色包括三个属性色调,亮度和色度,在实验工作中创建颜色操作。最后,我们强调了将颜色视为功能性和美学刺激的概念、经验和实践意义,并呼吁在这一重要但被忽视的领域进行更多的研究。
Color is a ubiquitous perceptual stimulus, yet relatively little empirical and even less theoretical work exists on color and psychological functioning. The research that has been conducted has tended to lack the scientific precision and rigor evident in other areas of inquiry in psychology. In response, we have set out to develop a general model of color and psychological functioning-color-in-context theory-which we present herein. We also overview several lines of empirical work that have emerged from this theoretical framework, starting with research on red in achievement contexts, moving on to research on red in affiliation contexts, and concluding with research on other colors in other contexts. In addition, we articulate the need to carefully attend to the fact that color comprises three attributes-hue, lightness, and chroma-in creating color manipulations in experimental work. We close by highlighting the conceptual, empirical, and practical implications of viewing color as a functional, as well as aesthetic, stimulus, and by sounding the call for more research in this important yet overlooked area.
