Effects of Expression on Facial Color Memory
Press Releases | June 13, 2024
Extent of the Memory Color Effect Varies by Expression
The association between facial expressions and the memory color effect has been elucidated through a collaborative effort involving the Cognitive Neurotechnology Unit and the Visual Perception and Cognition Laboratory at the Department of Computer Science and Engineering at Toyohashi University of Technology. The memory color effect refers to the phenomenon in which knowledge of the typical color of a specific object (the memory color) influences the recognition of its actual color. This study showed that angry and fearful faces were more strongly affected in terms of color recognition because of the memory color effect compared with neutral faces and that memory colors varied between expressions. The results of this study were published online in the Journal of Vision on May 31, 2024.
