... 18 CHAPTER 4: DARK-ROOM REAR-PROJECTION SCREEN EXPERIMENT This experiment was conducted in a dark hallway with a 4ft by 7ft calibrated rear-projection screen and projector located at the end. The purpose of the experiment was to determine color classification responses for a common pavement marking viewing geometry.

A Magnified View of the Yellow Response Percentages Overlaid on the CIE 1931 Chromaticity Diagram The between-subject variable "eccentricity" did not seem to generate a strong enough difference between yellow and white responses, and therefore is not a statistically significant factor.

... 27 Pairwise comparisons between initial chromaticities showed that the only nonstatistically significant differences were found between chromaticity 0, chromaticity 1, and chromaticity 2. All other pairwise combinations of initial chromaticities proved statistically significantly different in affecting the response.
