Thumbs up Re: Color Perception Is Not in the Eye of the Beholder

Fascinating article! I've always wondered if people perceive colour in the same way. For example, if what I call "blue" looked more like my idea of "green" to someone else. Well, this study seems to indicate that we all see the same thing after all.

Since we're on the topic of colour, what do you think of the reasons (psychological, sociological, etc.) for liking/disliking certain colours? For example, my favourite colour fluctuates between blue and green - does this indicate a personality change or a mood change? And does my intense hate of the colour orange really mean something?
