Abstract:

By exploring the associations that people make between emotions and
colours, looking at how they vary across languages, and exploring the
explanations that people provide for the associations that they make,
this Element provides insight into the ways in which humans express
emotions through colour, and the reasons why they do so. Metaphoric
(and metonymic) language and thought play a key role on several levels
in the formation of emotion–colour associations, interacting with
physical, environmental and social factors. A strong metaphorical
connection between the valence of the emotion and the lightness of the
colours with which it is associated, and between the intensity of an
emotion and the saturation level of the colours with which it is
associated is found. However, the strength of this association varies
according to the linguistic background of the speaker, and the gender
in which the emotion is presented.
