Abstract
This study aimed to investigate the effect of color and texture in the evaluation of tactile sense and color sense respectively. Color stimuli consisted of fifteen chromatic colors and three achromatic colors. Tactile stimuli were three types of resin plates. Participants evaluated the linguistic images of the tactile impression and color impression evoked from the color stimuli and tactile stimuli respectively using a five-point scale. The results showed that tone affected the evaluation of fine roughness, macro roughness, and hardness; bright tone, and vivid tone were rated as smooth; and flat, grayish tone, and dark tone were evaluated as rough and uneven. Tactile sense affected the evaluation of lightness and vividness. Flat texture was rated more brightly and vividly than the deeply wrinkled texture. The results suggested that color influences the tactile impression and texture influences the color impression.
