Abstract

The study demonstrated that the connotative meanings of color names may be conditioned to terms with which they are associated. In a paired-associate learning task CVC trigrams served as stimuli for color name responses. Subsequent ratings of the trigrams on the semantic differential varied systematically according to the color names with which they had been associated. Possible implications for the study of racial prejudice were noted.
