MAINTAINING AN ABSOLUTE HUE IN THE PRESENCE OF DIFFERENT BACKGROUND COLORS,
Abstract
Subjects were instructed to make wavelength settings for various hues by an absolute method in the presence of surround-field colors or darkness. Surround- and testfield colors were equated in luminance. The subject's compensatory shift in setting for the maintenance of a test-color is taken to be the difference between his wavelength setting for the test-color in the presence of the surround-field color and the wavelength setting for the test-color with a dark surround. In general, the compensatory shift in wavelength setting is always in the direction of the background wavelength. A discussion regarding the nature of the shift setting is given. (Author)
