色彩とイメージの共感覚現象に関する一考察

Abstract

In order to make the synesthesia phenomenonan of colors and image clear, we performed a test using W. wolff s color-word matching method and from the first to the firth factor were exctracted from the factor analytical method.The order from the first to fifth factor are“the pleasantness-unpleasantness-factor”, “the activity-factor”, “the strong-week-factor”, “the evaluation-factor”, “the potency-factor”.In each factor, the first factor corresponds to light clear colors and dark clear colors. The second one is to high chroma and low chroma. The third one is to light clear colors and dark clear colors of warm color. The fourth one is to yellow of“low lightness or high chroma”and“middle lightness and from middle chroma to yellow of low chroma”. The fifth one is to“low lightness and low chroma”and“from middle lightness to warm color of high chroma”.The test was based on matching one handred colors with fifty-five sense adjectives.The results of the test tells us that synesthesia image of colors was defined by mainly tone, depending on chroma and lightness.As for intermodality in colors and sense image, the correlation of the emotional meaning dimension and the meaning dimension of sense was confirmed.
