Enhancing Memory Using ColoursAmong Malays in Malaysia Mood (PANAS). Age group • DV: Memory • Extraneous: Colour blindness. Words & Numbers. Language use .Variable • IV: Colour. • To determine whether words or numbers effect memory. .Objective • To examine how colours effect memory. • To investigate how age can effect memory. • To examine how mood effects memory.

Exposure to warm colors will not have such an impact and therefore might not cause enough arousal to trigger the corresponding increase in memory. Department of Psychology Journal of Undergraduate Research X (2007) Pro • Faber Birren (1950) that warm colors. • McConnohie (1999)found that the slideshow with the white background resulted in higher retention rates both immediately. Wolters and Goudsmit (2005) study. • Otani et al. such as red and yellow. increase arousal more than cool colors. This would be an expected result since blue and green are both cool colors and therefore won’t have as much Contra • • Huchendorf (2007) found that there was no significant difference for percent recall among color categories. they were testing recall based on very arousing and traumatic events. (2006) found that color increased the recognition of the natural scenes by approximately 5%. • Spence et al. and one hour after viewing the slideshow. (1983) found that yellow and orange (warm colors) elicited more arousal than other colors like brown and gray. (2007) found that the participants appropriately rated the arousing story as more arousing. such as green and blue. More importantly they found that recognition for the more arousing story was significantly higher than recognition for the neutral story.The Effects of Color on Memory Lynnay Huchendorf Faculty Sponsor: Melanie Cary. . as did color and shape individually The main effects for each element alone on comprehension were significant. that this design factor was able to induce positive emotions that had a statistically significant effect on enhancing comprehension Shape was most effective in facilitating transfer learning when used with neutral colors. but not for color. or .

In contrast.g.. and colleagues have proposed that the null effects of these perceptual variables on implicit memory performance are mediated by representations that describe an object’s shape (i.

Informed consent is distributed to all participants and participants are asked to provide standard demographic information. They were then asked to turn the page and work on a 3-digit multiplication task for two minute. the next sheet was a blank page on which they were asked to recall as many words as they could.
