“…Further, a couple of studies also considered icon-background color combinations, especially in aesthetic preferences. An example of the latter was that of Shieh and Ko [6] used preference rating to explore the effects of targetbackground color combinations on icon design.

This study tried to explore the correlations between aesthetic preference and perceived usability of color combinations.The evidence showed that most color combinations had lower aesthetic rating consistence, and few ones had extremely higher rating consistence between subjects. Next, the rating consistence of aesthetics for color combinations was lower than that of legibility and comfort. Finally, the correlations between aesthetic preference rating and legibility and comfort, respectively, were not very high. However, the argument that aesthetic preference ratings were correlated with perceived usability would be satisfied when the rating consistence for all aesthetic preference, legibility and comfort color combinations are much higher.

“…Based on the results of Shieh and KO (2005), four color combinations of high preference (black-on-white, blue-on-white, red-on-black, yellow-onblue) and four of low preference (purple-on-red, turquoise-on-red, turquoise-on-green, green-on-purple) were used. There were six chromatic colors and two achromatic colors in the eight color combinations.…”

“…Recently, Shieh and KO (2005) showed that red, blue, and black were more preferred background colors for white targets, whereas the preferred background colors for a black target were white, red, and yellow. The most preferred color combinations were red-on-black, blue-on-white, black-onwhite, and red-on-white.…”

This study investigated the effects of the target and background color combination on subjective preference, i.e., aesthetic appearance, legibility and visual comfort, of stimuli presented on a visual display terminal under various ambient illuminations, luminance contrasts, and stimulus types. Analysis showed the main effect of color combination was significant for the three dependent variables. Black-on-white and blue-on-white were the most preferred combinations, while turquoise-on-green and turquoise-on-red were the least preferred. A sign was rated better than text. The significant interaction between color combination and luminance contrast indicated that more preferred color combinations were rated better under higher luminance contrast, whereas less preferred color combinations had better ratings under lower luminance contrast.

There are a large number of studies on color and its influence upon human emotions, but there have been only a few studies on the correlation between color and depressive mental disorders. This study used color preference, association, and creation of self‐portraits to explore the relationship between color and depressive tendency. In this study, 337 freshman design students participated in the experiment, and the center for epidemiologic studies‐depression scale (CES‐D) was used to determine the extent of depression in the subjects. After classifying the subject as “depressive tendency” and “no depressive tendency,” the semantic differential scale and color association methods were used to explore the subjects' emotional, cognitive, and perceptive responses to Munsell 14 colors. In the final portion of the study, the 233 subjects created a colored self‐portrait. The main conclusions found by this study are: (1) when color is used to determine whether subjects have depressive tendency, then the three colors of Yellowish Red, Purple, and Dark Gray are important discriminant variables. (2) those who have depressive tendency (DT) or do not have depressive tendency (NoDT) have similar results in color association, except when viewing dark Gray in association with abstract concepts, wherein DT subjects chose more negative emotional words such as “hopeless,” “fear,” and “depression”; (3) among the 233 self‐portraits, the existence of depressive tendency correlated with the colors used on the face in the self‐portrait. From the above conclusions, this study finds that there is much association between depressive tendency and color perception. © 2008 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. Col Res Appl, 34, 84–92, 2009.
