“…In addition, a study has proved that people's mental health will be better when they get in touch with the natural environment. [22]. There is a strong relationship between natural environments and color since when people think about natural environments, they often think about the objects such as trees, grass, and flowers, all associated with the color green.…”

Due to the rise of industrialization and consumerism, consumer markets become very competitive. Many companies are racking their brains to figure out how to attract as many consumers as possible in order to earn revenue. Under such circumstances, producers have tried different marketing methods. One of the methods relates to the color of the product, and it has shown significant effectiveness in grabbing the attention of consumers. The purpose of the paper is to figure out how color affects consumer purchase behavior by attempting to review multiple papers, and the researcher has separated it into several parts: in the first section, the research illustrates the meaning of color. In the second section, the researcher describes the effect of color on the brain and mood. In the third section, the researcher explains the effect of gender differences on color perception. In the fourth section, the researcher relates color with health. In the final sections, the researcher provides a final suggestion to both consumers and producers.

Aim The positive dimension of mental health should be considered to assess the complete state of a person’s mental health and to protect it. Very brief valid screening instruments implemented in general mental health programs and in therapeutic setting are supportive tools hereby. In the present work, we aimed to develop such tools. Subject and methods In two studies (Study 1: N = 1,004; Study 2: N = 1,000) on representative German population samples, we developed and validated three ultra-short scales – the “bubbles” – that consist of only one item per construct based on Positive Mental Health Scale (PMH-Scale; Lukat et al. 2016), Satisfaction with Life Scale (SWLS; Diener et al. 1985), and Social Support Questionnaire (F-SozU K-6; Lin et al. 2019) for the assessment of the positive mental health dimension. The bubbles are designed in a graphical/visual format. Results The results of Study 1 and Study 2 revealed that the bubbles are valid instruments that fit the original instruments on the factor level; the bubbles mostly replicated their association pattern with demographic variables, and with variables that belong to the negative and the positive dimension of mental health. Conclusions The shortness of the bubbles prevents participants’ fatigue and motivation decrease. Thus, due to their time- and cost-efficiency, the bubbles can be used as brief screening tools in research (e.g., large-scale studies, longitudinal studies, experience sampling paradigms) and in praxis (e.g., mental health programs). Future research should validate the bubbles in clinical context and cross-national.
