This study investigated the effect of contrast in neutral‐, warm‐, and cool‐colored spaces on spatial memory. Spatial memory was measured in terms of architectural scale and recollection of architectural elements and furniture. Participants (N = 114) viewed a short virtual simulation video of a residential studio and were asked to sketch a map of the architectural elements on distributed grid paper. Spatial memory was measured in terms of scale, and item recall rate. Contrast and hue had no significant effect on the memorization of proportional scale. However, high‐contrast schemes allowed for a significantly higher recollection of architectural elements than low‐contrast schemes. In comparing the effect of hues, a significant difference was seen in recalling detailed furniture and lighting items. Participants reported significantly better spatial memory of neutral and warm color schemes than of cool color schemes. There was no interaction effect between contrast and hue in the color combinations. These results can be applied in the design of color schemes for architectural spaces requiring enhanced spatial cognition and memory.

内部色彩对比是否增强了空间记忆？

这项研究调查了中性，暖色和冷色空间中的对比度对空间记忆的影响。空间记忆是根据建筑规模以及建筑元素和家具的回收来衡量的。参加人数= 114）观看了一个住宅工作室的虚拟模拟短视频，并被要求在分布式网格纸上绘制建筑元素图。空间记忆是通过规模和项目召回率来衡量的。对比度和色调对比例量表的记忆没有显着影响。但是，与低对比度方案相比，高对比度方案可以显着提高对建筑元素的记忆。在比较色相的效果时，在召回详细的家具和照明物品时看到了显着差异。参与者报告说，中性和暖色方案的空间记忆比冷色方案好得多。在颜色组合中，对比度和色相之间没有交互作用。
