Abstract

steels & belpaeme's (s&b) procedure does not model much of the important variation that occurs across human color categorizers. human perceptual variation and its corollary consequences impact real-world color categorization. because of this, investigators with the primary aim of understanding color categorization and naming across cultures should exercise some caution extending these findings to explain how different human societies lexicalize color appearance space.
