Abstract
Objective To investigate the color preference of autism children and normal children. Methods The paired-comparisons method was used to investigate the color preference in 45 autism children and 124 healthy children. Results (1) The sequence of color preference in autism children was yellow(8.19±1.76), black(7.47±2.32), blue(7.23±2.12), green(6.82±1.93), red(6.42±2.08), purple(6.40±2.09), orange(6.28±1.83) and white(5.68±2.39)(F=6.549, P=0.000). (2)There was remarkable difference on red(t=2.728, P=0.007), yellow(t=-3.275, P=0.001) and purple(t=2.320, P=0.022) between autism children and normal children. (3)There was no remarkable difference between boys and girls of autism children(P>0.05). (4)There was no remarkable difference among autism children aged 4 to 6(P>0.05). Conclusion Color preferent was different between autism children and normal children.Different gender and age of autism children have no effect on the color preference.
