Journal Article
Bae, G., Olkkonen, M., Allred, S., & Flombaum, J. (2015). Why some colors appear more memorable than others: A model combining categories and particulars in color working memory. Journal of Experimental Psychology: General, 144(4), 744-763. https://doi.org/10.1037/xge0000076

Categorization with basic color terms is an intuitive and universal aspect of color perception. Yet research on visual working memory capacity has largely assumed that only continuous estimates within color space are relevant to memory. As a result,...

The effect of memory and context changes on color matches to real objects (2015)
Journal Article
Allred, S., & Olkkonen, M. (2015). The effect of memory and context changes on color matches to real objects. Attention, Perception, and Psychophysics, 77(5), 1608-1624. https://doi.org/10.3758/s13414-014-0810-4

Real-world color identification tasks often require matching the color of objects between contexts and after a temporal delay, thus placing demands on both perceptual and memory processes. Although the mechanisms of matching colors between different... Read More about The effect of memory and context changes on color matches to real objects.
