Classroom Color Preference Of Primary Scholar And The Effect Of Color On Pupil's Writing Efficiency

Color arouses people's diversified physiological and psychological reactions,and the influence effect on children is much more direct and profound than on adults.The color of the classroom effects on children's physiology and behavior.The purpose of this research was to investigate the color selection of primary scholar,and validate the color influence of pupils' behaviors.The methods of this research were investigation and experimentation. Firstly,we investigated the color of the classrooms in an elementary school and the color preference of primary scholar,and then on basis of the research,we did experimentation in the elementary school.We used three different colored wall papers to paste on the walls of the classrooms,one of the color was the pupil's most favorite color——cyan,another one was the common favorite color——yellow,and the third color was white.We wanted to see how the color would effect the pupil's writing efficiency in different colored classrooms.The result of the investigation was that the colors of classrooms at elementary schools were humdrum,and most of the colors were white,no other than the skirts of the classroom wall and the outside of some classroom were colorful.The results of the classroom's color preferences of primary scholar were that their favorite colors were cyan,amaranth and purple.Students in different grades have different selections;schoolboys' selection was different from schoolgirls'.Boys like cyan,turquoise and green,while girls like amaranth,purple and cyan.The experimentation in different classrooms indicated that there was no difference in students' writing quantities,but the qualities were different,the quality of the task written in cyan classroom was excelled to the task written in white classroom,and the total quantity of wrong characters written in cyan classroom was the fewest.As a whole,pupil's writing efficiency in cyan classroom was the best.
