Color perception and deafness: college-level comparisons.

J Ostroga-Parker, W E Wilsoncroft

    Journal of Communication Disorders
    |September 1, 1979
    PubMed
    Summary

    Deaf and hearing college students showed similar color perception. Differences emerged in color-verbal tasks, with deaf students performing differently than both hearing and art students.

    Area of Science:

    • Cognitive Psychology
    • Sensory Perception
    • Linguistics

    Background:

    • Investigating potential differences in color perception and processing between deaf and hearing individuals.
    • Examining the influence of verbal processing on color-related tasks in different auditory groups.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To compare the performance of deaf students, normal-hearing students, and art students on color perception and color-verbal tasks.
    • To determine if auditory status impacts color perception or verbal associations with color.

    Main Methods:

    • Administered nine tests assessing color perception and color-verbal materials.
    • Included tasks such as Color-Form Sorting, Color-Form Pointing, Color-Word Meaning, Color-Pair Preferences, and Color-Word Interference.
    • Compared performance across three groups: deaf students, normal-hearing students, and art students.

    Main Results:

    • No significant differences in color perception were found between deaf and normal-hearing students.
    • Differences were observed primarily in tasks involving verbal materials, not pure color perception.
    • Deaf students showed greater performance differences compared to art students than to normal-hearing students.

    Conclusions:

    • Auditory status does not appear to affect basic color perception abilities.
    • Verbal processing components of color-related tasks are more sensitive to differences between deaf and hearing individuals.
    • Art students represent a distinct group in terms of color-verbal task performance compared to both deaf and hearing students.
