Keywords:

Numerous scientific research studies are dealing with colour relationship and individual behavior, especially children of pre-school and primary school age. In this paper, the clothing colours, most frequently worn by children of primary school in age of 7 to 11, was studied for eight different classes. The aim of the research was, although based on subjective evaluations of teachers, answering the question about influence of the clothes colour hue on emotional behavior of pupils and in what way. Evaluation has been performed in six emotional categories: angry, confused, full of energy, cheerful, without emotions. For each class studied, subjective evaluation of frequency (f) colour warn by pupils was given with related emotional description. Results show that the basic clothing colours are red and blue for pupils of first and second grade, also showing the highest frequency of positive emotional experiences. However, for pupils of third grade, the red colour becomes related to the emotional state of “confusion” and “indifference”. Further, in fourth grade there were not pupils in emotional category ”without emotions“, what can be related to growth of pupils maturity in that age.Downloads
