  4. Why?

  5. Why do we associate certain moods with certain colors?

  6. Previous Research • Many psychologist study the relationships between colors and moods. • Abne Eisenberg- country, culture, upbringing, etc. • Green- Islam, Ireland, England • L.B. Wexner-parallel of colors and moods • Results: people chose common moods that were generally associated with that color

  7. Hypothesis • If someone sees a specific color, then they can automatically connect that color with a specific and predictable mood.

  8. Process • Gather group of 30 students, give worksheet Happy Freshness/Earthiness Deathly/Mournful Anger Gloomy/Depressed Sad/Coldness Love/Romance Enthusiasm/Warmth Clean/Purity Dirty/Aged Royalty/Wisdom 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. 6. 7. 8. 9. 10. 11.

  9. 2. Have 11 different papers with each paper having one color

  10. 3. Hold papers up one at a time and have everyone write down the first emotion that came to mind from the pre-selected mood box (how colors/mood pairings were chosen) 4. Once the group has gone through all 11 colors, they then are instructed to go back and write a small explanation as to why they chose that mood for each color. 5. Lastly, I counted up the data and put it into data tables to see if the majority of each color picked was the most general and predictable mood

  11. Analysis of Results Color:Green Color:Red Color:Yellow Color:Blue

  12. Color: Pink Color:Purple Color: Black Color:Grey

  13. Color:Orange Color: White Color:Brown

  14. Analysis of Results • Correct in hypothesis • After tallying up results- majority for each color chose the emotion that was pre-chosen as the most predictable • Explanations from worksheet- showed that people connected the reasons why to things in their culture/society.

  15. Sample • Sample- EHS seniors • Sample Size- 30 • Perfect Size

  16. Changes/Problems • No major problems • Next time/ going farther changes- If I wanted to study this more intensely I would allow the sample to write down their own emotions/moods for each color and not have a pre-selected chart. Then with their explanation I could interpret more closely why specifically THAT person chose that answer.
