This journal is relevant to my research question because it contains a study that
explains how color and graphic design makes our understanding of color more profound.
In this study researchers connect certain colors to different symbolic meanings which
also helps them understand the meaning of the color a little better. In the end the
researchers concluded that “the human visual sense is influenced by color, and the
human perception conveys emotion, and different colors will have different feeling
effects”(Cao 2021).

This journal is relevant to my research question because it contains a study that
created a “method for automatic color assignment based on theories of color
perception”(Kim 2014). In the study researchers used eight different methods/ figures to
collect data on which color palettes were chosen over others. In the ends researchers
were able to generate 56 combinations of color palettes and get them all ranked as
number 1.

This journal is relevant to my research question because it contains a study that
aims to innovate the method of visual media communication design and break through
the traditional color matching and visual communication design. In the study the
researchers designed a model of color matching and image application in visual media.
They then collected the percentage of people using different types of visual design. In
the end I believe researchers came to a satisfactory conclusion, but because the
research wasn’t mature enough they did not get all the results intended.

This journal is relevant to my research question because it contains a study that
illustrates why certain aspects are important to effective communication in graphic
design including specific tools being used. In this journal researchers explain why certain
design choices are made when using graphic design with the intent to help people
improve their visual communication skills. Researchers found this study to be a success
and encourage a relationship between graphic designers and scientists.

This journal is relevant to my research question because it contains a study that
explores the advantages of computer multimedia technology in visual when teaching the
designing of color. Researchers interview 87teachers from 10 universities asking them
all the same questions regarding the psychology experiment teaching designing color.
Researchers concluded that “CMT can improve the teaching efficacy and enhance the
expression and reconstruction ability of color of students”, (Shaohua 2021).

This journal is relevant to my research question because it contains a study that
developed quantitative metrics that helps people choose and use colors in visualizations
and editing more effectively. In this study researchers measured color difference
perception using points,bars, and lines. They also used mark sizes to help track work
and helped them compare their results with other scientists working in color. In the end
researchers concluded, “that elongated marks, as commonly used in visualizations,
significantly increase discriminability over fixed-thickness models”(Szafir,2018).

This journal is relevant to my research question because it contains a study that
aims to aid users in the selection of colors when it comes to making important functions,
personal preferences, etc. In the study the researchers used the color wheel as their
source. Users would pick colors from the wheel, adjust the hue, and the system would
generate different colors based upon the selection that would be appealing. In the end

the researchers successfully designed a system that could help researchers achieve
more task-effective and aesthetic color designs with ease.
