| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
In spite of those intuitive reality, colors are not physical properties of bodies or rays. And we can't find colors in our brains which generate color experiences. So it has been a problem how color can hold a position in the scientific world image. Our research was aimed at contributing to the solution of this problem, and made a step toword a comprehensive ontological theory of color, not only with a physicalistic approach, but also with a consideration to recent development in mind-body dualism.

| Academic Significance and Societal Importance of the Research Achievements |
色を感じるという身近な現象が実は謎に満ちたものであることを示すとともに、科学的な世界の捉え方には不備や限界があると安易に決めつけることなく、謎を解く手だてをあちこちに探るという、世界を理解することに対する冷静な姿勢を提示した点に、学術的意義と社会的意義を認められうるものと思われる。
