Research Abstract

People tend to have cross-modal correspondence between colors and temperature, as in the categorization of red to yellow as warm colors and blue regions as cold colors. However, how this correspondence arises and the commonality and diversity among individuals remain largely unexplored. Therefore, in order to examine the commonality and diversity of this characteristic in terms of both physiological and cultural factors, we conducted a survey of people of various color vision and age groups. There was a commonality that the correspondence approaches to that of adults with trichromatic vision, which is the majority in any color vision as they develop. However, there were also cases in which characteristics of minor color vision had a strong influence, suggesting that both cultural-social and physiological factors contributed.
