Is color of
light affect feeling while reading?
Do you know color has more effect in daily life? When you decorate your house, you will choose suitable color for each room.
When you buy something, you will choose it by color that you like. When you go
to temple, you will wear white shirt. You do that because it will make you feel
good. We get influence from color every time. Do you know how it affects our
feeling? For everything… or not?
If color can affect everything then
it also use for reading. Knowing that reading a book can make more of feeling
such as exciting, calm or sleepy. Reading
a book, sometimes we need to use a light bulb for increase light. Do you think
it is good if we can use colored light to increase poetic
flavor for reading or decrease sleepy feeling it may be good for readers. For
this experiment, it is to test that color of light affects our feeling while reading.
For my own hypothesis, color
of light has more influence for readers because there was research showing that intensity
of light has effect on your eyes and color can affect your feeling. Then I had set
up an experiment to check that point by finding five people in the same age to
read a same book with three conditions red light, green light and white light.
Red light is stead of hot tone
color that should make you feel awake and excited but it will make pain for our
eyes. For green light is stead of cold tone color that suitable for rest your
eyes and keep you calm but it may make you sleepy. Then I give my volunteers
books to read for ten minute at 10 o’clock for three days with red light in the
first day, green light in the second day and the last day is control.
After finished one of condition, I
inquired them about their feeling while reading a book that “Did you feel awake
or sleepy?” and “Did it make you feel good?” and I collected this data to make
graph to show how different of their feeling for each color light and when
finished this experiment I question them “Which condition is the best”
The result
for red light condition is that four of volunteers felt awake but only one didn’t
but everyone said that they didn’t feel good because it paid their eyes. For
green light condition, three of volunteers felt sleepy but two of them didn’t
feel that and also three of them like this condition but others said that it caused
them a headache and everyone said that they like control more than other
conditions.
From the experiment result, I can’t provide a clear-cut
conclusion that color of light has effect for readers because the result isn’t
clear and it has a few volunteers. Then we can’t conclude this experiment but
from this experiment we can tell that light in control or light without color
is better than colored light. Then when you read books, don’t forget to choose a
light bulb that suitable for you and your eyes.
