Outline of Final Research Achievements

The purpose of this study is to understand how color vision variations derived from genetic polymorphisms influence individual differences in visual attention and aesthetic impressions of images. Participants with various color vision types observed paintings and answered their impression. The gaze during the art appreciation was tracked. The results showed that the visually attended regions were associated with visual features in the paintings and the color vision of the participants. The color vision variations had great effects on the impression of colorfulness, and the impression was also influenced by the long-term experience of a certain color vision. Overall, the results provide the evidence that the genetic variations generate individual differences at behavioral and impression level, and that the interplay between congenital and acquired factors also plays a role to modify the differences. This will be useful to create effective designs for people with various characteristics.
