| Abstract |
| Human behavior, expression and adaptation are a result of brain analysis based on all the data received from external environment. Out of all the external data received, the information received by the visual sense is approximately 80%, the auditory sense is approximately 15% and only 5% are from other senses. Therefore, there are more researches done on the visual related processes than any other senses. Normal people can identify 10 million types of colors however, Once the ageing process begins it causes the eye lens to become yellow causing yellowed eye sight; this leads to the ability to recognize different colors reduce drastically. According to a research in Japan, 29.24% of people aged 70 or more carries this "yellowed eye sight phenomenon." The disturbance in the eyes caused by ageing will have the equal amount of impact on the human behavior. Korea has became an ageing society with 7.2% or more population containing people aged 65 or more in year 2000; and in the year 2018, Korea will become an aged society with the aged population estimated percentage increasing to 14.3% or more. This research is significant because quitea few Korean populations can misrecognize the impression of colors delivered by color design. This manuscript carries a purpose to seek a way for alternative colors to reduce visual misrecognition and misinterpretation caused by ageing. This research found problems caused to aging and direction for resolution. Also, through this research, we have found people with yellowed eye sight phenomenon are distinctively different from normal people in their ability to recognize visual colors and the feelings and images. In addition, the improvements on the yellowed eye sight phenomenon were brought to the result with the consideration of the characteristics colors hold. These results can be applied to elderly related facilities and color design plans. For further research, the specific study on color image map for the people who have Yellowing Phenomenon is needed and it will be required to activate deeper study considering the condition of light. |
