'The Chromaticities of Subjective Colors Elicited by Rotation of the Fechner-Benham Disc,' by Guy Verriest and Ryo Seki.

Ronald J. MacGregor

Expert InsightsPublished 1967

A translation of an article in the [Revue d'optique theorique et instrumentale] (1964) describing an experiment made to quantitatively evaluate artificially induced colors in terms of Munsell samples and to determine the effect of unequal speed on their development. The results indicate that the colors elicited do not depend on the trichromatic components of the illumination, but on the spectral distribution. Since the data were obtained from a single individual thirty-eight years of age, and in most cases represent single unrepeated measurements, this work does not preempt that proposed by Hubert Moshin, who will perform repeated measurements on a large number of younger subjects. 16 pp. Ref.
