Abstract:

This report presents the results of three complex multiple task experiments intended to compare the effectiveness of color coding in visual displays against coding by achromatic letters, digits, and shapes. The results of these three experiments are then integrated with previously reported research to provide a comprehensive assessment of the potential advantages and disadvantages of color coding.
