Color Me Productive

The results have some expected (different things work for different people) and some surprising (bright red is very good for some people) tidbits. At long last, I have scientific proof that the taupe and beige on my cubical wall are not the best colors for my productivity."

Strange idea...

[djsmiley]

We have known for a long time that, red, and the combonation of yellow / black has been a warning sign.

We also know that some people react better in stressful situations.

Has anyone tested to see if the same people that react well in stressful situations are more (or less) effected by these color schemes?

I know the artical says "different people", but im wondering on a indivual basis, if this holds true in the other sense.

I.e. Does a person who will stand and fight, match with the same colour scheme as someone else who stands and fights, or does the "way" your mind interpets colours change indenpently of this?
