Abstract
Human perception involves many cognitive processes, such as memory, attention, and critical thinking. An important cognitive process is memory, which is usually connected with the storing and retrieval of information. Different colors and labeling have diverse physiological effects on humans. Our investigation aimed to determine if a change in color or labeling would have a significant effect on memory span and serial recall. However, our results do not support that coloring and labeling have significant impacts on a subject’s memory.

Memory span is the length of time a subject can remember the order without an error
Summary
Human memory is influenced by numerous factors This has raised some interesting and challenging questions in cognitive psychology. Two interesting aspects of the human cognitive process are those of serial recall and memory span [1]. A previous study indicated that color is believed to be the most important visual experience to human beings [2]. The results from previous studies indicated that color and labeling could affect the human attention level. This effect on attention level could determine a subject’s ability to recall a given sequence [4]. We aimed to test the effects that changes in coloring and labeling of a simple game would have on a subject’s memory span and serial recall.
