The performance of three groups of college-level subjects, deaf students, normal-hearing students, and Art students, were compared on nine tests involving color perception and color-verbal materials including (a) Color-Form Sorting, (b) Color-Form Pointing, (c) Color-Word Meaning, (d) Color-Pair Preferences (N=3), and (e) Color-Word Interference (N=3). Color perception differences between the deaf and the hearing groups were not substantiated: deaf and hearing groups differed only on tests involving verbal materials. The Deaf differed more from the Art students than from the Hearing.

The causes of chromatic aberration were elucidated by Newton in 1704, though in regard to the eye the phenomenon has been a subject of controversy. The chromatic aberration of the eye has long been used to determine refraction. In principle, blurred coloured circles are visible which depend on the chromatic aberration of the eye and lead to perception of different contrasts in the dark optotypes presented in the two coloured fields, depending on the real ametropia or correction conditions. Uniform perception of contrast by the subject is used as the criterion for correction. As regards the red-green test, it appears doubtful that the results are not influenced by protanopia and brunescent cataract. Therefore, the contrast thresholds of 8 protanopic patients and 5 patients with brunescent cataract were examined. This was done using special red and green lenses (produced by VEB Carl Zeiss Jena) under individual conditions with Landolt's rings. Characteristic differences in the contrast thresholds for red and green were found. For bichromatic tests no procedure has been defined, and neither the wave-lengths to be used nor the reference wavelength have been laid down. The results can be affected by numerous physical, physiological and pathological factors. The accuracy and practical usefulness of red-green tests are questionable. Therefore, it does not appear justified to equip ophthalmological examination instruments for such tests.
Viewing of annuli modulated in color in a sawtooth fashion in time results in differential threshold elevations for the detection of color changes of inscribed disks. The elevations are of nearly the same magnitude as those resulting from viewing modulated disks. However, the differential effects on thresholds for complimentary colors are reversed. The differential effects, thus, are correlated with the variation in appearance of the test area.
