Titchener circles

Titchener circles are visual tools used in psychology to study how people perceive color. They consist of a circle filled with different colored segments, allowing individuals to compare colors directly. By adjusting the segments, researchers can explore how we perceive similarity and difference between colors, helping to understand the gradations and relationships in our color perception. Titchener circles are a way to systematically investigate how the human eye and brain interpret color variations, contributing to the study of visual perception and color theory.
