    I have put my phone on grayscale for many years now 😊 For iPhone users, grayscale is in the accessibility settings. Easy to revert to normal to see photos and videos. I did that because colors on the phone are abused. The goal has never been to help us but to trick us to do something. So I have turned all colors off on my phone. I have been less disturbed and distracted since.

      Dude, nothing is taken for granted. Most people are NOT colour blind and that's no one's fault so it's a smart thing to limit exposure to colour to our advantage. And btw colours do exist in the world outside of your devices
      What on earth are you talking about

    Many years ago. When I was in my late 20's (I'm 56 now), I was going through EMT training. At that time, a doctor, whose name escapes me, had talked about using color, instead of the number scale 1-10 for determining a patients pain, 1 being least and 10 being the most. It was experimental research at the time - BUT - it worked 100% better than the number scale for pain reduction. It was just as easy to assess the level of pain by initially asking, "If pain were a color, what color would your pain be right now?" followed by "What color is your pain now?" and so on. The most amazing thing happened - the patients pain decreased as the color changed when they were asked even without any type of analgesic or pain medication being administered. The numeric scale depends greatly upon the use of either one of those things AFTER they have been administered. The human mind, such a fascinating place. The color scale became something I used as my kids were growing up. To clarify, NO we do not "all" use the whatsapp app or any other added app for that matter. I still prefer talking with and to someone without texting, messaging, etc. I also have my apps organized by category and are labeled accordingly ie tools, social media, utilities, etc. Eye color, not clothing color, is what I notice first when it comes to first impressions and always has been. I do have my clothes organized by color, sleeve or pants leg length and grouped by individual type of clothing. What can I say? My Dad was a US Marine. 😁

    I'm a 2d artist, polyglot and have aphantasia, for me what might be a cool or cold blue can at times feel warm to me, likewise what to others is a warm red or orange, can be cold to cool for me, so not all people must have the same color reaction, though I'm likely an odd outlier in these terms

      My mom has anxiety and blue calms her down and feels “warm”. I have depression and red pulls me out of my own head. I think it depends on stuff like that.

    interesting :) . just to add: RyanAir has yellow in their theme, based on the Whatsapp experiment I really not pretty sure if they do have yellow colour inside their airplanes, but if they do, I guess it is for a sales reasons or it just came that way not intentionally

    • @bobblehat6603

      Yes I can confirm, RyanAir plane interiors are predominantly yellow. This contributes to a positive experience for the passengers. Yellow is associated with sunshine, hope, laughter, warmth, happiness, and energy. Yellow is found to make a person feel spontaneous and happy. A splash of yellow on anything dull or dark can make a person feel cheerful and optimistic.

    • @vvelvettearss
      @vvelvettearss 4 місяці тому

      Dude that's just a coincidence about "red" why on earth would we make the past tense of the act of scanning our eyes over words to take in information and knowledge into the name of a colour? It's too random
      You are seeing things that aren't there
      However I agree with it being the most powerful colour

    I don't know why arranging by colors should be more efficient than arranging by phone screen by most-used apps in the front etc.. When I got to this point I quit listening to this lecture.
    By the way , I don't like red, that may be another reason I had some bias against this speaker...

      Also do you like pinks? They are a shade of red and purple too to some extent. Also there is the chestnut brown which takes out the scarlet but is still a muted shade of red
