Research on Colour Visual Preference of Light Source for Black and White Objects

摘要

Many studies now use coloured objects when discussing lighting colour preference, but rarely involve black and white objects. In this study, nine CCTs were adopted to illuminate three groups of black and white objects (a group of black and white birds, a group of black and white statues and four black and white photographs). Thirty observers, 16 males and 14 females, were invited to give their visual preference for experimental black and white objects, and to judge whether they prefer black bird/statue or white bird/statue. The results show that light dominates colour preference and black and white objects have no significant eifect on the preference. And the three-dimensional objects can strengthen the conclusion that light dominates preference compared with two-dimensional objects. In research about preferring black or white objects, there are no difference of lighting, as well as gender difference. The difference of objectdoes not exist in black and white bird experiment but exist in black and white statue experiment.
