THE PROBLEM AND ITS BACKGROUND
INTRODUCTION
Color plays a vitally important role in the world in which we live. Color can sway thinking,
change actions, and cause reactions. It can irritate or soothe your eyes, raise your blood pressure
or suppress your appetite. When used in the right ways, color can even save on energy
consumption.
Colors are not just there to beautify our surroundings, it also helps to stimulate the mood
and behavior people. As we go on our everyday lives we do encounter colors and it definitely have
purpose other than just to give our world vividness. We live in a world of color.
According to various researches, the color that surrounds us in our daily lives has a
profound effect on our mood and on our behavior. According to Aves (1994), the presence of color
in things such as clothing, interiors, landscapes, and even natural light can change our mood from
sad to happy, from confusion to intelligence, from fear to confidence. Colors can actually level out
emotions or to create different moods.
Another study conducted by Kotler (1973), the design of an environment through a variety
of means such as temperature, sounds, layout, lighting, and colors can stimulate perceptual and
emotional responses in people and affects their behavior. We all know that color is an inseparable
part of our everyday lives, this study aims to use it as a medium of improvement for students’
behavior and moods. It is inherent in everything we see and do and studies indicate that it plays a
role in emotion, productivity, communication and learning.

For decades, interior designers have leveraged color to set a room’s purpose or mood.
While often ignored in the classroom, color remains an important element to consider in any
environment. The use of color can be broad, such as a room’s wall color, or a select accent, such
as chairs, desks or tables, depending on the intended effect. With a few exceptions, the use of color
within schools has been limited to functionality. According to Ohio-based interior designer,
Elizabeth Stout, color in school room design is rarely a consideration, except for its relation to
functionality. Typically, a school will have a neutral wall color and use the school’s colors as an
occasional accent. However, furniture color is an important part of the school. Similar to wall
color, the pieces used in different spaces require different color usage to facilitate learning. While
there is no one-size-fits-all approach to room and furniture color selection, looking at the effects
of color on emotion and relating that to the purpose of the learning space can help guide the color
choices on walls, on floors, and even on furniture.
Colors have a psychological value. This can vary depending on our personal experiences and
associations with a color, there are also specific traits of colors that may be having a very real
impact on your mood. Before choosing to incorporate a color significantly in everyday
consumption, take a moment to think about how looking at the color for an extended period of
time makes us feel. Some colors are only good in small doses. Although yellow is widely
considered a color that helps your mood, it’s not recommended as a main color scheme. Studies
have shown that rooms with too much yellow may actually cause people to lose their tempers more
easily.

The depth and darkness of a color can impact how it is received. For instance, dark purple can
cause a more dramatic reaction, whereas light purple is considered relaxing—making it a good
choice for a bedroom.
David Johnson (2017) conducted a study that summarizes the perception of people about
common colors like black, white, red, blue, green, yellow, purple and brown. Johnson’s study
states that black is the color of authority and power. It is popular in fashion because it makes people
appear thinner. It is also stylish and timeless.
Black also implies submission. Priests wear black to signify submission to God. Some fashion
experts say a woman wearing black implies submission to men. White symbolizes innocence and
purity that’s why brides often wear white gowns during their wedding day. Doctors and nurses
wear white to imply sterility.
Red is the most emotionally intense color, red stimulates a faster heartbeat and breathing. It is
also the color of love. Red clothing gets noticed and makes the wearer appear heavier. Since it is
an extreme color, red clothing might not help people in negotiations or confrontations. Red cars
are popular targets for thieves. Blue was said to be the color of the sky and the ocean, blue is one
of the most popular colors. It causes the opposite reaction as red. Peaceful, tranquil blue causes
the body to produce calming chemicals, so it is often used in bedrooms.
Blue can also be cold and depressing. Fashion consultants recommend wearing blue to job
interviews because it symbolizes loyalty. People are more productive in blue rooms. Studies show
weightlifters are able to handle heavier weights in blue gyms. Green is currently the most popular
decorating color, green symbolizes nature. It is the easiest color on the eye and can improve vision.
It is a calming, refreshing color. People waiting to appear on TV sit in green rooms to relax.
GRADE ELEVEN
DEPARTMENT
Hospitals often use green because it relaxes patients. Brides in the middle ages wore green to
symbolize fertility. Dark green is masculine, conservative, and implies wealth. However,
seamstresses often refuse to use green thread on the eve of a fashion show for fear it will bring bad
luck.
A cheerful sunny yellow is an attention getter. While it is considered an optimistic color,
people lose their tempers more often in yellow rooms, and babies will cry more. It is the most
difficult color for the eye to take in, so it can be overpowering if overused. Yellow enhances
concentration, hence its use for legal pads. It also speeds metabolism.
Purple is the color of royalty, purple connotes luxury, wealth, and sophistication. It is also
feminine and romantic. However, because it is rare in nature, purple can appear artificial.
Lastly, brown is interpreted as a solid color. Reliable brown is the color of earth and is
abundant in nature. Light brown implies genuineness while dark brown is similar to wood or
leather. Brown can also be sad and wistful.
While blue is one of the most popular colors it is one of the least appetizing. Blue food is rare
in nature. Food researchers say that when humans searched for food, they learned to avoid toxic
or spoiled objects, which were often blue, black, or purple. When food dyed blue is served to study
subjects, they lose appetite. Green, brown, and red are the most popular food colors. Red is often
used in restaurant decorating schemes because it is an appetite stimulant.
The research will be conducted primarily aiming to identify the effects of color among the
mood of students and how it can be a great help to control different moods and behaviors. Being
a Grade Eleven student is not easy there are lot stressors that we need to face including the
GRADE ELEVEN
DEPARTMENT
challenges of adolescence which affects the hormones of the body causing some mood disorders.
It is important to study the connection of colors and moods because it can be use as an advantage
to take control of how we handle our moods. A lot of studies are conducted by deifferent
researchers but we are still aiming to nurture and gain better understanding of color psychology.
STATEMENT OF THE PROBLEM
This study discussed the effects of color prior to the mood of Grade Eleven students at
Jesus Is Lord Christian School.
Specifically, the following questions will be answered:
1. Why do colors affect the mood of students?
2. How can we use colors to control or regulate the mood of students?
3. What action plan is needed to use colors as a tool in enhancing the mood of
students?
SIGNIFICANCE OF THE STUDY
This study will be beneficial especially to the following:
Students. Colors affect the behavior, attitude, attention span and learning of students as well as
the time concept of the students and this study will make them aware of that. Students will be able
to know on how they can help themselves to control their moods.
Teachers. This research will help them in a way that they will have a hint on how to accommodate
and make their students more attentive during classes.
Entrepreneur. Most of today's conversations on colors and persuasion consist of hunches,
anecdotal evidence and advertisers blowing smoke about "colors and the mind." To alleviate this
trend and give proper treatment to a truly fascinating element of human behavior.
GRADE ELEVEN
DEPARTMENT
Parents. The parents will have a background knowledge of how the color of the environment
can help them to innovate the moods of their children.
Future Researchers. This research was undertaken to find out how color affects the mood of the
students, future researchers can site this research and gather some ideas that will help them to
understand color psychology.
SCOPE AND DELIMITATION
The main focus of the study is to identify the effect of colors upon the mood of students. The
study will be conducted at Jesus Is Lord Christian School and the respondents will be Grade Eleven
students because students at the age range of 15-19 are most likely to experience drastic mood
changes. Both female and male respondents will be chosen randomly. The study evaluates the
effect of color upon Grade Eleven students and results may vary according to personal opinions
and experience.
DEFINITION OF TERMS
Colors. According to Merriam Webster Dictionary colors are a phenomenon of lights or visual
representation that enables one to differentiate otherwise identical objects. In this paper it is
defined as a specific combination of hue that can possibly affect the moods of students.
Behavior. According to Merriam Webster Dictionary behavior is the way in which someone
conducts oneself. In this study behavior is the attitude of a person towards what he or she sees and
visualize.
Color Psychology. According to Precision Intermedia a website that studies about colors, color
psychology is about sending positive or negative messages through the medium of colors. In this
GRADE ELEVEN
DEPARTMENT
study color psychology talks about studies and researches that supports the idea of association
between mood and colors.
Mood. According to Merriam Webster Dictionary mood is a conscious state of mind or
predominant emotion. In this study mood is defined as the primary reaction and disposition of
students prior to what they see or visualize.
CHAPTER II
REVIEW OF RELATED LITERATURE

GRADE ELEVEN
DEPARTMENT
This chapter presents the related literature and studies after the thorough and in-depth
search done by the researchers. This will also present the synthesis, theoretical framework and
conceptual framework to fully understand the research to be done.
RELATED LITERATURE
According to American Psychological Association (2009), mood is an emotional state that
may last anywhere from a few minutes to several weeks. Mood affects the way people respond to
stimuli. For example, a depressed mood creates a bias in favor of responding negatively, whereas
a manic mood makes it more likely that a person will respond energetically. Moods are different
from emotions in that they are not necessarily caused by anything. For example, a person may feel
the emotion of happiness after getting married or receiving a gift, while a happy mood is a
disposition to react happily toward external stimuli. Moods tend to last longer than emotions.
Additionally, according to Yolanda Williams (2003), emotions are intense feelings that are
directed at specific objects or situations, while mood is a state of feeling that is less intense than
emotions and more generalized. For instance, when a person is mad (emotion), they are usually
mad at specific things; however, when a person is feeling anxious (mood), they may be anxious
throughout the day no matter what the circumstances.
Meanwhile, the website Your Dictionary (2019) explains mood as a feeling or a person's
specific state of mind at any particular time. A mood is also the prevailing emotion found not only
in people but also in literature, music, and other expressive arts. Moods set the overall tone for
speech or writing and are an important element in literature as well as in everyday life.
On the other hand, Crayola Company (2017) states that color is the aspect of things that is
caused by differing qualities of light being reflected or emitted by them.

GRADE ELEVEN
DEPARTMENT
To see color, you have to have light. When light shines on an object some colors bounce off
the object and others are absorbed by it. Our eyes only see the colors that are bounced off or
reflected. The sun’s rays contain all the colors of the rainbow mixed together. This mixture is
known as white light. When white light strikes a white crayon or marker barrel, it appears white
to us because it absorbs no color and reflects all color equally. A black crayon or marker cap
absorbs all colors equally and reflects none, so it looks black to us. While artists consider black a
color, scientists do not because black is the absence of all color.
While the RGB world (2019), defined color as a sensation that adds excitement and emotion
to our lives. Everything from the cloths we wear, to the pictures we paint revolves around color.
Without color; the world would be a much less beautiful place. Color can also be used to describe
emotions; we can be red hot, feeling blue, or green with envy.
Moreover, Kendra Cherry and Steven Gans MD (2018), explained that color is produced
when light is striking an object and reflected back to the eye. The three properties to color are hue,
intensity, and value. Hue is the name we give to a color. Intensity is the strength and vividness of
the color. Value is the lightness or darkness of color. Shade and tint are in reference to value
changes in colors. Color is a powerful communication tool and can be used to signal action,
influence mood, and cause physiological reactions. Certain colors can raise blood pressure,
increase metabolism, or cause eyestrain. Feelings about color can be deeply personal and are often
rooted in experience or culture.
Furthermore, the executive director of The Color Association of the United States, Leslie
Harrington (2013), states that there are several reasons why colors are able to influence how we
feel. Harrington said that people tend to react on multiple levels of association with colors. There
GRADE ELEVEN
DEPARTMENT
are social or culture levels as well as personal relationships with particular colors humans also
have an innate reaction to color. For example, when we look at red, it does increase our heart rate.
It is a stimulating color. This goes back to caveman days of fire and danger and alarm.
Likewise, as stated by Anonymous (2018), colors are often used to express different emotions,
as in the phrase, “I am feeling blue.” When we are sick, we might refer to ourselves as green.
Someone else might be red with anger. Colors provide a way to add a visual representation to an
invisible quality. They help us more accurately describe emotions. Colors can actually create and
effect emotions, as well. Seeing a particular color can change our mood without you even realizing
it. Marketers and advertisers exploit this fact all the time. Big company logos are red for they not
only get our attention, but they also get our blood pumping.
On the other hand, Sally Agustin, Ph.D (2015), believes that the most important thing to know
about colors, and our emotional response to them, has to do with colors’ saturation and brightness.
Saturation is how pure a color is. Less saturated colors are more grayish, so khaki green is less
saturated than Kelly green. Brightness is, as you’d expect, basically how light a color seems.
Colors that are less saturated but bright, such as a bright sage green, are relaxing, and those that
are more saturated and less bright, such as sapphire blues, are more energizing to look at.
Lastly, Steven Gans, MD (2018), color can play an important role in conveying information,
creating certain moods, and even influencing the decisions people make. Color preferences also
exert an influence on the objects people choose to purchase, the clothes they wear, and the way
they adorn their environments. People often select objects in colors that evoke certain moods or
feelings, such as selecting a car color that seems sporty, futuristic, sleek, or trustworthy. Room
colors can also be used to evoke specific moods, such as painting a bedroom a soft green to
create a peaceful mood.

RELATED STUDY
Johnson (2007) found out in his study that colors does affect the mood by producing certain
chemicals and stimulating different feelings such as hunger. For example, blue can make one feel
calm because it releases calming chemicals, and red can make one hungry because itis an appetite
stimulant. Yellow can make someone feel irritated, and it is a fact that people lose their temper
most in yellow rooms. However, pink is tranquilizing and can make one feel weak. In conclusion,
Johnson says that depending on the color, one’s body can do things such as producing chemicals
that cause a certain emotional reaction.
Another study by Smith (2007), is that the effect that color produces is based on what one’s
body does in response. For instance, yellow is mentally stimulating and activates memory and
whereas red increases confidence. Also, brown can make a person feel orderly and stable, while a
dark blue can make one feel sad. Therefore, Smith says that different colors do in fact change the
mood of people and the consequences can be negative or positive.
Another writer Wollard (2000) formulated an idea through his study that color can affect one’s
mood, but the effect can also depend on people’s culture and what their persona may be. For
example, someone from Japan may not associate red with anger, as people from the United States
tend to do. Also, a person who likes color brown may associate brown with happiness. However,
Wollard does think that colors can make everyone feel the same, or close to the same mood.
According to Wollard, pink reduces aggression, which is why the walls of the jail cells in Seattle
prisons are pink.
More recent research conducted by Carruthers, Morris, Tarrier, and Whorwell (2010) focused
on mood-color associations with the use of new color wheel instrument they developed specifically
GRADE ELEVEN
DEPARTMENT
for their study. They discussed the shortcomings of projective color tests such as “the Color
Pyramid test, the Rorschach Inkblot test, the Luscher Color test, the Lowenfeld Mosaic test, and
the Stroop test,” and sighted the lack of a valid tools for measuring emotional states (Caruthers et.
al., 2010). In their study, three participant groups (healthy, anxious, and depressed) were exposed
to a total of thirty-eight colors in a color-wheel (eight main colors with four variations of each and
four shades of gray) and chose a color they were most drawn to, a favorite color, and which color
best represented their recent mood (Caruthers et.al., 2010). Participants from all three groups
showed similar responses on what colors were their favorites and most drawn to, but in comparison
to the healthy group, the anxious and depressed groups had significantly different responses to
mood-color association and most often chose variations of gray to describe their mood (Caruthers
et. al., 2010).
Eric, John, and Paraag’s (2007) main point in their study is about color psychology is that
color has both a physiological and psychological effect. For example, green makes people feel
relaxed because it relaxes their muscles and makes them breathe deeper and more slowly.
Furthermore, blue lowers blood pressure, which makes one feel calm. Eric, John, and Paraag
conclude that color affects one’s mood because of what it does to the body.
Yet another study conducted by Airey (2006), is that color is energy, and it can have a
physical, mental, spiritual, and/or emotional effect on people. He states that black can make one
feel sophisticated and secure, but it can also make one feel depressed. Also brown can make a
person feel reliable and serious, while yellow lifts self-esteem. Therefore, Airey concludes that
different colors can have different kinds of effects on people.

According to a research study from Hill and Barton (2005), they noted that in many non-
human animals, including primate species, dominance in aggressive encounters like superior
physical condition is signaled by the bright red of oxygenated blood visible on highly vascularized
bare skin. Artificial red has likewise been shown to signal dominance in non-human animals,
mimicking the natural physiological process. In humans in aggressive encounters, a testosterone
surge produces visible reddening on the face and fear leads to pallor Hill and Barton (2005) posited
that the parallel between humans and non-humans present at the physiological level may extend
to artificial stimuli, such that wearing red in sport contests may convey dominance and lead to a
competitive advantage.
Furthermore, Elliot and Maier (2012) have proposed color-in-context theory, which draws on
social learning, as well as biology. Some responses to color stimuli are presumed to be solely due
to the repeated pairing of color and particular concepts, messages, and experiences. Others,
however, are presumed to represent a biologically engrained predisposition that is reinforced and
shaped by social learning. Through this social learning, color associations can be extended beyond
natural bodily processes (e.g., blood flow modulations) to objects in close proximity to the body
(e.g., clothes, accessories). Thus, for example, red may not only increase attractiveness evaluations
when viewed on the face, but also when viewed on a shirt or dress. As implied by the name of the
theory, the physical and psychological context in which color is perceived is thought to influence
its meaning and, accordingly, responses to it.
Moreover, Meier and Robinson (2005) have posited a conceptual metaphor theory of color.
From this perspective, people talk and think about abstract concepts in concrete terms grounded in
perceptual experience (i.e., they use metaphors) to help them understand and navigate their social
GRADE ELEVEN
DEPARTMENT
world (Lakoff and Johnson, 1999). Thus, anger entails reddening of the face, so anger is
metaphorically described as “seeing red,” and positive emotions and experiences are often depicted
in terms of lightness (rather than darkness), so lightness is metaphorically linked to good (“seeing
the light”) rather than bad (“in the dark”). These metaphoric associations are presumed to have
implications for important outcomes such as morality judgments (e.g., white things are viewed as
pure) and stereotyping (e.g., dark faces are viewed more negatively).
As stated on the study by (Cajochen et al., 2005), for many years it has been known that
light directly influences physiology and increases arousal but recently theorists have posited that
such effects are wavelength dependent. Blue light, in particular, is posited to activate the
melanopsin photoreceptor system which, in turn, activates the brain structures involved in sub-
cortical arousal and higher-order attentional processing. As such, exposure to blue light is expected
to facilitate alertness and enhance performance on tasks requiring sustained attention.
CONCEPTUAL FRAMEWORK
Color Mood
Figure 1: This shows the paradigm of the study. The rectangle shows the independent variable
which is color. On the other hand, the oval shows the dependent variable which is mood. The
single headed arrow between the rectangle and the oval shows how color can affect the mood of
students.
THEORETICAL FRAMEWORK
GRADE ELEVEN
DEPARTMENT
The theory Color Psychology was proposed by David Johnson (2007), it states that like death
and taxes, there is no escaping color. It is ubiquitous. Yet what does it all mean? Why are people
more relaxed in green rooms? Why do weightlifters do their best in blue gyms?
Colors often have different meanings in various cultures. And even in Western societies, the
meanings of various colors have changed over the years. But today in the U.S., researchers have
generally found the following to be accurate.
Black
Black is the color of authority and power. It is popular in fashion because it makes people
appear thinner. It is also stylish and timeless. Black also implies submission. Priests wear black to
signify submission to God. Some fashion experts say a woman wearing black implies submission
to men. Black outfits can also be overpowering, or make the wearer seem aloof or evil. Villains,
such as Dracula, often wear black.
White
Brides wear white to symbolize innocence and purity. White reflects light and is considered a
summer color. White is popular in decorating and in fashion because it is light, neutral, and goes
with everything. However, white shows dirt and is therefore more difficult to keep clean than other
colors. Doctors and nurses wear white to imply sterility.
Red
The most emotionally intense color, red stimulates a faster heartbeat and breathing. It is also
the color of love. Red clothing gets noticed and makes the wearer appear heavier. Since it is an
extreme color, red clothing might not help people in negotiations or confrontations. Red cars are
GRADE ELEVEN
DEPARTMENT
popular targets for thieves. In decorating, red is usually used as an accent. Decorators say that red
furniture should be perfect since it will attract attention.
Pink
The most romantic color, pink, is more tranquilizing. Sports teams sometimes paint the
locker rooms used by opposing teams bright pink so their opponents will lose energy.
Blue
The color of the sky and the ocean, blue is one of the most popular colors. It causes the
opposite reaction as red. Peaceful, tranquil blue causes the body to produce calming chemicals, so
it is often used in bedrooms. Blue can also be cold and depressing. Fashion consultants recommend
wearing blue to job interviews because it symbolizes loyalty. People are more productive in blue
rooms. Studies show weightlifters are able to handle heavier weights in blue gyms.
Green
Currently the most popular decorating color, green symbolizes nature. It is the easiest color
on the eye and can improve vision. It is a calming, refreshing color. People waiting to appear on
TV sit in "green rooms" to relax. Hospitals often use green because it relaxes patients. Brides in
the Middle Ages wore green to symbolize fertility. Dark green is masculine, conservative, and
implies wealth. However, seamstresses often refuse to use green thread on the eve of a fashion
show for fear it will bring bad luck.
Yellow
GRADE ELEVEN
DEPARTMENT
Cheerful sunny yellow is an attention getter. While it is considered an optimistic color,
people lose their tempers more often in yellow rooms, and babies will cry more. It is the most
difficult color for the eye to take in, so it can be overpowering if overused. Yellow enhances
concentration, hence its use for legal pads. It also speeds metabolism.
Purple
The color of royalty, purple connotes luxury, wealth, and sophistication. It is also feminine
and romantic. However, because it is rare in nature, purple can appear artificial.
Brown
Solid, reliable brown is the color of earth and is abundant in nature. Light brown implies
genuineness while dark brown is similar to wood or leather. Brown can also be sad and wistful.
Men are more apt to say brown is one of their favorite colors.
While blue is one of the most popular colors it is one of the least appetizing. Blue food is
rare in nature. Food researchers say that when humans searched for food, they learned to avoid
toxic or spoiled objects, which were often blue, black, or purple. When food dyed blue is served
to study subjects, they lose appetite. Green, brown, and red are the most popular food colors. Red
is often used in restaurant decorating schemes because it is an appetite stimulant.
SYNTHESIS
Johnson (2017) and Smith (2007), stated that the effect of color towards mood is a product of
our body. The hormones and chemicals that our body releases due to the presence of colors causes
certain emotional reaction.

GRADE ELEVEN
DEPARTMENT
On the other hand, Wollard (2000) believes that color affect the mood of people depending on
the culture and persona they have.
Caruthers et.al (2010), conducted a study and used a color wheel instrument to observe the
effect of color towards mood. They concluded that anxious and depressed group of people tend to
react more vigorously than a healthy group.
Eric et.al (2007), Elliot and Maier (2012), Airey (2006), and Hill and Barton (2005), stated
that colors affect people in a physiological (e.g. blood pressure) and psychological way, the
response of the stimuli of people are solely due to the presence of color. The main idea of both
studies is that color affects one's mood because of what it does to our body.
Metaphors were a big help regarding to the study of Meier and Robinson (2005). They used
metaphors to site abstract and concrete concepts about the how color affects the mood.
While Cajochen et.al (2005), used wavelengths of colors to study the effect of color and light
prior to the alertness and performance of people.

RESEARCH METHODOLOGY
RESEARCH DESIGN
This study is a qualitative method which is a descriptive method of research. According
to Holton and Burnett (2005), descriptive research design uses surveys to gather information
about organizations, groups, people, and other categories to describe major characteristics which
is the general procedure of determining the effect of colors prior to the mood of Grade Eleven
students at Jesus Is Lord Christian School.
The relationship between color and mood is widely accepted and studied by researchers
around the world. Hence, this study focuses on the perspective of Grade Eleven students at
JILCS about the relationship between the two main variables which are color and their mood.
RESPONDENTS OF THE STUDY
The respondents of the study are Grade Eleven students from Jesus Is Lord Christian School.
The respondents’ age range is between 16-18 years old, at this point in adolescence hormonal
changes take place and occur severely that may cause sudden changes in mood.
The researchers chose the respondents concerning their age range. A study conducted by the
UNICEF Office of Research (2017), states that at the moment a person reach the age between 16-
18 his/her hormones become more and more active that results to interchanging moods. The
researchers would like to identify and analyze different techniques in order to control the mood of
the students.

DEPARTMENT
RESEARCH INSTRUMENT
The instrument used was a researcher-made questionnaire specifically a checklist to gather the
needed data for the student’s profile. The draft of the questionnaire was drawn from the related
literature and studies of the research paper and also from the statement of the problem. The
requirements in the designing of good data collection instrument were considered. For instance,
the questions were toned down to the level of intellect of the said respondents to accommodate
their perspectives. Open-ended questions were also used in order to gather verbatim data and to
obtain valid responses from the students.
DATA GATHERING PROCEDURE
The first step into the survey proper was to send request letters to the class advisers of the
students who will be the respondents. In conducting the survey the researchers provided
questionnaires that contains all the questions that need to be answered in order to come up with
results and conclusions. Lastly, the researchers analyzed and summarized the answers from their
respondents.

PRESENTATION, ANALYSIS AND INTERPRETATION OF DATA
I. Colors affect the mood of students
1. What color stimulates happiness and why?
Happiness is triggered by bright colors because they are pleasing to the eyes according to
Katherine Fesalbon. However, the rest of the respondents answered specifically just like Trisha
Esperon. Trisha stated that “Yellow kasi para sakin mas maganda ang yellow para mag stimulate
to happiness dahil sa light nitong kulay gaya ng nafefeel natin if we are happy.” Likewise
Kiemberly Lagare said “Para sakin the color that stimulates happiness ay yung kulay na yellow
kase everytime na nakakakita ako ng yellow color gumagaan agad yung loob ko at nababrighten
yung day ko, ewan ko ba pero sobrang refreshing nya haha.” Together with these two girls there
are also five other respondents who shared the same answer, Marianna Aguda for instance
discussed that “Yellow. It lightens up my mood because of its bright color.” Ronald Orido sited
“YELLOW because color yellow for me represents positivity so i feel so positive when I see
yellow so that I feel happy.” Rochelle Lanceta she said that “yellow, kasi para sakin
nakakapagpasigla ito ng damdamin at nakakalift ng spirit.” Shaina Saavedra shared that for her
“Yellow, para sakin yung kulay ng yellow ay nakakapag bigay ng saya sa mga tao na nakakakita
nito dahil sa tingkad ng kulay at mabilis na mapansin ito.” As for the last respondent who answered
yellow Vannessa Barrion claimed that “Yellow, kase kapag nakikita ko sya parang ang gaan sa
pakiramdam napapasaya nya ako.(Vanessa Barrion)”
For some respondents blue is their choice of color when it comes to happiness. According to
Felice Moncayo “Aqua blue, it makes me feel relieved.” Followed by Ian Galang who said that
GRADE ELEVEN
DEPARTMENT
“Blue. Kasi nakakalma yung kulay at favorite ko yung kulay blue.” Rose Ann Rendon also
answered blue and claimed that “For me color blue, because maaliwalas tingnan at tsaka it
symbolize freedom.” Merie Rose Ramos had the same answer wherein she declared that “Blue
because it symbolize freedom.” Same with Erika Millera “Blue, kasi nagsisimbolo sya ng
kapayapaan.” Lastly, Seth Madrid opted for blue and stated that “Blue kasi favorite color ko at
cool sa pakiramdam.”
Estella Balisong chose white and stated “I think its white beacuase wla kang makikitang
karumihan and hindi sya masakit tingnan you can also add any color that you want para maging
colorful sya, we also know that colorful symbolize happiness.” Julianna Gonzales also answered
white and quoted “White, kasi pakiramdam ko malaya ako sa lahat ng bagay kase kapag malaya
ka, nakakaramdam ka ng sobra sobrang saya!!!!!!”
Rhosemae Gutay go for red and claimed that “Red, kasi everytime na may celebration laging
red ang ginagamit, kaya para sakin red kasi parang nakasanayan na.” Another one was Hazel
Garcia who said that “Red, because red is representing love then if you have love you make feel

The answer of the respondents showcases their choice of color when it comes to stimulizing
happiness. 7 out of 20 respondents stated that yellow stimulates happiness, followed by blue
wherein, 5 out of 20 respondents said that it is their happy color. White, pink, and red got 2 out of
20 respondents respectively. On the other hand only one respondent answered orange, while
another one answered very broadly and stated that her happy color are bright colors.
According to American Psychological Association (2009), mood is an emotional state that may
last anywhere from a few minutes to several weeks. Mood affects the way people respond to
stimuli. For example, a depressed mood creates a bias in favor of responding negatively, whereas
a manic mood makes it more likely that a person will respond energetically. Moods are different
from emotions in that they are not necessarily caused by anything. For example, a person may feel
the emotion of happiness after getting married or receiving a gift, while a happy mood is a
disposition to react happily toward external stimuli. Moods tend to last longer than emotions.
On the other hand, Crayola Company (2017) states that color is the aspect of things that is
caused by differing qualities of light being reflected or emitted by them.
To see color, you have to have light. When light shines on an object some colors bounce off
the object and others are absorbed by it. Our eyes only see the colors that are bounced off or
reflected. The sun’s rays contain all the colors of the rainbow mixed together. This mixture is
known as white light. When white light strikes a white crayon or marker barrel, it appears white
to us because it absorbs no color and reflects all color equally. A black crayon or marker cap
absorbs all colors equally and reflects none, so it looks black to us. While artists consider black a
color, scientists do not because black is the absence of all color.

Johnson (2007) found out in his study that colors does affect the mood by producing certain
chemicals and stimulating different feelings such as hunger. For example, blue can make one feel
calm because it releases calming chemicals, and red can make one hungry because itis an appetite
stimulant. Yellow can make someone feel irritated, and it is a fact that people lose their temper
most in yellow rooms. However, pink is tranquilizing and can make one feel weak. In conclusion,
Johnson says that depending on the color, one’s body can do things such as producing chemicals
that cause a certain emotional reaction.
2. What color stimulates sadness? Why?
According to Katherine Fesalbon the color that stimulate sadness is “Dark color – dill.”

Additionally, according to Yolanda Williams (2003), emotions are intense feelings that are
directed at specific objects or situations, while mood is a state of feeling that is less intense than
emotions and more generalized. For instance, when a person is mad (emotion), they are usually
mad at specific things; however, when a person is feeling anxious (mood), they may be anxious
throughout the day no matter what the circumstances.
While the RGB world (2019), defined color as a sensation that adds excitement and emotion
to our lives. Everything from the cloths we wear, to the pictures we paint revolves around color.
Without color; the world would be a much less beautiful place. Color can also be used to describe
emotions; we can be red hot, feeling blue, or green with envy.
Likewise, as stated by Anonymous (2018), colors are often used to express different emotions,
as in the phrase, “I am feeling blue.” When we are sick, we might refer to ourselves as green.
Someone else might be red with anger. Colors provide a way to add a visual representation to an
invisible quality. They help us more accurately describe emotions. Colors can actually create and
effect emotions, as well. Seeing a particular color can change our mood without you even realizing
it. Marketers and advertisers exploit this fact all the time. Big company logos are red for they not
only get our attention, but they also get our blood pumping.

nagagalit ang isang tao, madalas namumula like me.” Marianna Aguda “Red, when I see this color
especially when I’m mad, it increases my heart rate.” The answer of Felice Moncayo is likely to
Marianna’s answer “Red, it represents anger, when I'm mad, my blood pressure increases.”
Vanessa Barrion said “Red, kase kakulay sya ng dugo parang galit ung pinahihiwatig.” For Ronald
Orido “RED! because madaming tao kapag nagagalit namumula at tska yung reaction ng angry sa
Facebook color red. Kaya para saakin, color red ang kulay para sa anger.” For Katherine Fesalbon
the color triggers anger “Red, color red si anger sa inside out na movie at pag sa toro red rin ang
gamit.” Pro Seth Madrid “Red kasi sobrang tapang sa pakiramdam kapag nakakakita ako ng
ganitong kulay.” Ruth Pamplona “Red, kasi para sa'kin ang red ay isang vibrant color.” Erika
Milelera said “Red, kasi kapag tayo ay nagagalit namumula tayo.” To Rico del Mundo he said
“Para sa akin, ang kulay na pula ang magsisimbolo sa galit. Ang pula ay kadalasang ginagamit
upang magpahayag ng matinding emosyon o damdamin lalo na kung ito ay tungkol sa galit dahil
ito ay may matingkad na kulay.” And lastly, Rochelle Lanceta says “Red, kasi it symbolizes rage
and blood.”
Few respondents believe that color orange triggers anger was Rose Ann Rendon she said
“Color orange, it's look like prison but at the same time it's symbolize hope.” the another answered
“I think it’s orange because I don't like orange color and sakit nyang tignan to the point na

negative na side lang ang pumapasok sa isip mo na kung saan di mo nakikita yung positive na side
na dapat ay may ilaw sa dark na nagtritrigger sa anger mo.”
For Hazel Garcia the color that triggers her anger is “Yellow, because I'm so irritated when I
see this color especially when the sun hit this”
The scales for the color of the respondents that trigger their anger, 14 out of 20 picked the
color red, followed by the color orange 3 out 20, for color black 2 out 20 respondents and 1 out of
20 chose yellow.
Moreover, Kendra Cherry and Steven Gans MD (2018), explained that color is produced
when light is striking an object and reflected back to the eye. The three properties to color are hue,
intensity, and value. Hue is the name we give to a color. Intensity is the strength and vividness of
the color. Value is the lightness or darkness of color. Shade and tint are in reference to value
changes in colors. Color is a powerful communication tool and can be used to signal action,
influence mood, and cause physiological reactions. Certain colors can raise blood pressure,
increase metabolism, or cause eyestrain. Feelings about color can be deeply personal and are often
rooted in experience or culture.
Furthermore, the executive director of The Color Association of the United States, Leslie
Harrington (2013), states that there are several reasons why colors are able to influence how we
feel. Harrington said that people tend to react on multiple levels of association with colors. There
are social or culture levels as well as personal relationships with particular colors humans also
have an innate reaction to color. For example, when we look at red, it does increase our heart

rate. It is a stimulating color. This goes back to caveman days of fire and danger and alarm.
4. What color is the most pleasing to the eyes? Why?
Merie Rose Ramos said that pastel colors are the most pleasing to eyes. . However, some
respondents gave specific colors for instance Ian Galang he said “Light Blue. Kasi nakaka good
mood yung kulay dahil sa light color nito.” Estella Balisong “Well for me I think it's light blue,
because light blue is my favorite color and hindi sya masakit tignan.” and for Rochelle Lanceta
the most color pleasing to the eyes is light blue according to her “Light blue, napakapayapa na
tingnan sa mata lalo na at kaulay nito ang kalangitan kapag maaraw.” and the color baby pink
which is like a pastel color was picked by Ruth Pamplona because “Baby pink, kasi yung baby
pink light color lang sya and malamig sa mata at di masakit sa mata.”
Another color that was picked by some respondents is white, for Rose Ann Rendon she
chose that color because accroding to her, “White, because it's look like Angel in my eyes parang
langit.” For Kiemberly Lagare, “Para sakin the most pleasing color to the eyes is white, kase
sobrang simple lang nya sobrang linis at napakapayapang tingnan.” Another idea from Hazel
Garcia is “White, because is a symbol of cleanliness and purity.” For Erika Millera “White, dahil
ito ay napaka simpleng tingnan.” Vannessa Barrion also opted white, “White, kasi ang linis
tingnan, maliwanag, nagpapahiwatig ng kapayapaan.” Rhosemae Gutay answered white for she
believes that, “ White, ang lakas kasi malinis tingnan ang white at para kasing aliwalas tingnan.”
The last respondent who answered white was Katherin Fesalbon she stated, “white-clean look”
The color blue is the most pleasing color to eyes of Trisha Esperon because “Blue kasi for
example pag nakikita natin ung dagat at blue na langit di ba ang sarap sa paningin” and Rico del
Mundo also had the same answer wherein he elaborated, “Para sa akin, ang kulay na blue ang
GRADE ELEVEN
DEPARTMENT
pinaka kaaya aya sa paningin dahil ang kulay nito ay katulad ng sa langit. Ito ay hindi
masyadong matingkad kaya mas nakakaakit ito sa paningin.”
One of the respondents chose the color pink, according to Marianna Aguda “Pink. A very
calm and feminine color. It’s lovely”
Julianna Gonzales picked the color yellow because that color is most pleasing to her eyes
she said why she choices that color because “yellow, kase para sakin ito ay nagpapakita ng hope
and of course sunshine”
Some of the Grade Eleven students believe that green is the most pleasing to the eyes.
According to Felice Moncayo, “Green, it has a warm and cool color and is pleasing to the eye.”
and for Seth Madrid “Green dahil nakaka-relax tignan. Masarap sa mata.” Ronald Orido said that
it is green, “Green! Because even though green is my favorite color, green represents nature and
nature is good in our sight so, Green for me is the most pleasing in my eyes.”
Shaina Saadvera answered red, “Red,dahil nag sisymbolize ng love at warm sa mga tao na
nakasisiya if titinganan mo ang paligid na lahat ay inlove haha.”she explained.
Seven (7) out of 20 respondents claimed that white is the most pleasing in the eyes, followed
by pastel colors which was chosen by five (5) out of 20 respondents. Next, green which got
three(3) out of 20. Then, blue that was picked by two (2) out of 20 respondents. Lastly, pink,
yellow, and red which got one(1) vote respectively.
On the other hand, Sally Agustin, Ph.D (2015), believes that the most important thing to know
about colors, and our emotional response to them, has to do with colors’ saturation and brightness.
Saturation is how pure a color is. Less saturated colors are more grayish, so khaki green is less
GRADE ELEVEN
DEPARTMENT
saturated than Kelly green. Brightness is, as you’d expect, basically how light a color seems.
Colors that are less saturated but bright, such as a bright sage green, are relaxing, and those that
are more saturated and less bright, such as sapphire blues, are more energizing to look at.
Lastly, Steven Gans, MD (2018), color can play an important role in conveying information,
creating certain moods, and even influencing the decisions people make. Color preferences also
exert an influence on the objects people choose to purchase, the clothes they wear, and the way
they adorn their environments. People often select objects in colors that evoke certain moods or
feelings, such as selecting a car color that seems sporty, futuristic, sleek, or trustworthy. Room
colors can also be used to evoke specific moods, such as painting a bedroom a soft green to
create a peaceful mood.
Another study by Smith (2007), is that the effect that color produces is based on what one’s
body does in response. For instance, yellow is mentally stimulating and activates memory and
whereas red increases confidence. Also, brown can make a person feel orderly and stable, while a
dark blue can make one feel sad. Therefore, Smith says that different colors do in fact change the
mood of people and the consequences can be negative or positive.
5. What color makes you feel relaxed? Why?
Julianna Gonzales and Katherine Fesalbon said that the color makes them feel relaxed are
pastel colors.“Pastel colors, sobrang relaxing saka nakakabawas ng stress talaga ang pastel
colors!!” Julianna said but Katherine says “Pastel colors - warm look” However, Estella Balisong

Kiemberly Lagare, “The color that makes me feel relaxed ay Green kase yun ang kulay ng nature
haha sobrang nakakagaan lang ng loob kapag yung buong paligid mo ay puno ng mga green
colors ganeeern!” Also for Ronald Orido, “Green also, because as said in Q4 green represents for
me as nature so i feel so relaxed when I see Green color.” For Seth Madrid, “Green dahil nakaka-
relax tignan. Masarap sa mata.” While Hazel Garcia claimed that, “Green, dahil hindi sya
masakit sa mata at nakakarelaxed titigan. For Erika Millera the color taht makes her feel relaxed
is also green, “Green, kasi kung makikita natin para syang kagubatan na wala kang makikita
kundi mga puno at makakalanghap ka ng sariwang hangin.” and the last respondent who
answered green was Rico del Mundo. According to him, “Ang kulay na green ang nagpapa
kalma sa akin dahil ito ay ang kulay ng ating mga puno at halaman sa kapaligiran. Nakatatanggal
ito ng pagod o ano mang negatibong nararamdaman.”
The other color that was chosen by the respondents is color blue. For Ian Galang, “Blue.
Kasi kulay ng tubig eh blue. Kaya parang nakakakalma tingnan yung kulay.” Shaina Saadvera
said that, “Blue kasi ang blue na color ay napakacalm like ocean and sky.” Rochelle Lanceta also
opted for blue because according to her, “Blue, kasi parang tubig napaka easy sa mata at
napakadalisay pagmasdan.” and also Rhosemae Gutay tell us that the color she feel relaxed on is
withing the color range of blue,“Sky blue, kasi minsan pag may problema ko or something, ang
sarap tumingin sa lahit tapos blue ang kulay, nakakarelaxed pagmasdan.”

According to Rose Ann Rendon when she see the color white she feels relaxed, she
explained that,“White also because it's look like heaven for me.” Also Felice Moncayo answered

and for Vanessa Barrion she chose white because for her,“White ganon din nagpapahiwatig ng
kapayapaan, nakakarelaxed para kang nasa isang tahimik na lugar ung ikaw lng ang tao.”
One respondent who picked the color mint green was Merie Rose Ramos. According to
her,“mint green, kase nakakarefresh ang kulay.”
One respondent claimed that when see the color black she feels relaxed. Marianna Aguda
stated that, “Black. Even though it’s the color for being sad and empty, somehow it gives me the
feeling of relaxation.”
For Ruth Pamplona she goes for baby pink,“Same as 1(baby pink) and 4 (baby pink)
narerelax ako hindi dahil favorite ko sila kundi malamig sila sa mata at hindi vibrant color and
dull.
Seven (7) out of the 20 respondents claimed that green is the most relaxing color, followed
by blue which got four (4) votes. Next, color white which was chosen by three (3) out of 20
respondents. Then pastel colors that was picked by two (2) out of 20 respondents. Lastly, light
blue, mint green, black, and baby pink got one (1) vote each.
Another writer Wollard (2000) formulated an idea through his study that color can affect one’s
mood, but the effect can also depend on people’s culture and what their persona may be. For
example, someone from Japan may not associate red with anger, as people from the United States
tend to do. Also, a person who likes color brown may associate brown with happiness. However,
GRADE ELEVEN
DEPARTMENT
Wollard does think that colors can make everyone feel the same, or close to the same mood.
According to Wollard, pink reduces aggression, which is why the walls of the jail cells in Seattle
prisons are pink.
More recent research conducted by Carruthers, Morris, Tarrier, and Whorwell (2010) focused
on mood-color associations with the use of new color wheel instrument they developed specifically
for their study. They discussed the shortcomings of projective color tests such as “the Color
Pyramid test, the Rorschach Inkblot test, the Luscher Color test, the Lowenfeld Mosaic test, and
the Stroop test,” and sighted the lack of a valid tools for measuring emotional states (Caruthers et.
al., 2010). In their study, three participant groups (healthy, anxious, and depressed) were exposed
to a total of thirty-eight colors in a color-wheel (eight main colors with four variations of each and
four shades of gray) and chose a color they were most drawn to, a favorite color, and which color
best represented their recent mood (Caruthers et.al., 2010). Participants from all three groups
showed similar responses on what colors were their favorites and most drawn to, but in comparison
to the healthy group, the anxious and depressed groups had significantly different responses to
mood-color association and most often chose variations of gray to describe their mood (Caruthers
et. al., 2010).
Eric, John, and Paraag’s (2007) main point in their study is about color psychology is that color
has both a physiological and psychological effect. For example, green makes people feel relaxed
because it relaxes their muscles and makes them breathe deeper and more slowly. Furthermore,
blue lowers blood pressure, which makes one feel calm. Eric, John, and Paraag conclude that color
affects one’s mood because of what it does to the body.

Pamplona contested the concept and explained that,“No, kasi it depends on the color plus para
sa'kin, nakakagulo lang yung colorful room mas okay sa sa'kin yung light color pastel color at

parang ang gulong tingnan kung ibat ibang kulay ang makikita sa isang kwarto.” According to
Shaina Saadvera, “For me its a no because it should be 1 or 2 color lang kasi pag sobra ng dami

some respondents like Rose Ann Rendon explained their answer, Rendon said, “Yes, para sakin

mas prepare Kong mag-aral kapag makulay ang aking paligid”. For Estella Balisong, “Yes,
because it can help me to concentrate and focus.” According to Merie Rose Ramos, “Oo! Para sa
akin masarap mag aral at nakaka gaan sa pakiradam pag makulay yung nasa paligid mo at
nakaka ganan mag aral at hindi na kaka antok dahil ang nasa paligid mo ay buhay na buhay.”
Rhosemae Gutay claimed, “Yes, especially sa mga bata. Pero sa tingin ko pwede ring hindi,
pwede kasi rin yung mag cause ng distraction baka kasi minsan mas bigyang pansin pa yung mga
design da room kesa sa tinuturo” and the last respondent who answered yes was Rico del Mundo
he said, “Ang makulay na silid ay makatutulong sa pag-aaral ng mas mabuti dahil nakatutulong
ang mga kulay upang pasiglahin ang damdamin ng bawat isang nakakakita.”
There are two respondents who answered that it may be a yes or a no. For Trisha Esperon,
“Depende kasi kapag masyadong OA ung pagkacolorful nya parang madidistract ka at ang
panget sa paningin mas maganda kung mas simple lng ang pagka colorful nya” and Kiemberly
Lagare stated, “Para sakin wala naman yun sa kung anong kulay ang nasa silid as long as
nakakapag aral ka ng maayos okay na yun pero bonus na din yung colorful na room kase
maiinspire ka lalo sa kung ano yung ginagawa mo.”
11 out of 20 respondents believe that it is not essential to have a colorful room in able to
gain motivation. On the other hand, six (6) out of 20 respondents believe that a colorful room
will motivate students to study well. However, two (2) respondents answered that it depends on
the situation.
Another study conducted by Airey (2006), is that color is energy, and it can have a physical,
mental, spiritual, and/or emotional effect on people. He states that black can make one feel
sophisticated and secure, but it can also make one feel depressed. Also brown can make a person
GRADE ELEVEN
DEPARTMENT
feel reliable and serious, while yellow lifts self-esteem. Therefore, Airey concludes that different
colors can have different kinds of effects on people.
According to a research study from Hill and Barton (2005), they noted that in many non-
human animals, including primate species, dominance in aggressive encounters like superior
physical condition is signaled by the bright red of oxygenated blood visible on highly vascularized
bare skin. Artificial red has likewise been shown to signal dominance in non-human animals,
mimicking the natural physiological process. In humans in aggressive encounters, a testosterone
surge produces visible reddening on the face and fear leads to pallor Hill and Barton (2005) posited
that the parallel between humans and non-humans present at the physiological level may extend
to artificial stimuli, such that wearing red in sport contests may convey dominance and lead to a
competitive advantage.
Furthermore, Elliot and Maier (2012) have proposed color-in-context theory, which draws on
social learning, as well as biology. Some responses to color stimuli are presumed to be solely due
to the repeated pairing of color and particular concepts, messages, and experiences. Others,
however, are presumed to represent a biologically engrained predisposition that is reinforced and
shaped by social learning. Through this social learning, color associations can be extended beyond
natural bodily processes (e.g., blood flow modulations) to objects in close proximity to the body
(e.g., clothes, accessories). Thus, for example, red may not only increase attractiveness evaluations
when viewed on the face, but also when viewed on a shirt or dress. As implied by the name of the
theory, the physical and psychological context in which color is perceived is thought to influence
its meaning and, accordingly, responses to it.

GRADE ELEVEN
DEPARTMENT
Moreover, Meier and Robinson (2005) have posited a conceptual metaphor theory of color.
From this perspective, people talk and think about abstract concepts in concrete terms grounded in
perceptual experience (i.e., they use metaphors) to help them understand and navigate their social
world (Lakoff and Johnson, 1999). Thus, anger entails reddening of the face, so anger is
metaphorically described as “seeing red,” and positive emotions and experiences are often depicted
in terms of lightness (rather than darkness), so lightness is metaphorically linked to good (“seeing
the light”) rather than bad (“in the dark”). These metaphoric associations are presumed to have
implications for important outcomes such as morality judgments (e.g., white things are viewed as
pure) and stereotyping (e.g., dark faces are viewed more negatively).
As stated on the study by (Cajochen et al., 2005), for many years it has been known that
light directly influences physiology and increases arousal but recently theorists have posited that
such effects are wavelength dependent. Blue light, in particular, is posited to activate the
melanopsin photoreceptor system which, in turn, activates the brain structures involved in sub-
cortical arousal and higher-order attentional processing. As such, exposure to blue light is expected
to facilitate alertness and enhance performance on tasks requiring sustained attention.
