  • Color, an important visual cue, can cross-modally affect odor association and odor quality identification Here, this research investigates aspects of the cross-modal associations between color and fragrance in greater depth, delving into the topic of whether the degree-of-association of fragrances with hue and tone of colors varies systematically. For 33 color stimuli (10 hues, 3 tones, and 3 achromatic colors), 67 subjects judged the degree-of-association of four typical fragrance families (fresh, floral, oriental, and woody) on a 7-point scale. The statistical analysis showed that fragrance associations of the all families had characteristic distributions across ten hues of the color stimuli. The cross-modal relationship between color tone (especially, lightness attribute) and fragrance association appeared to be dimensional (e.g. a positive linear relationship between the floral family and the lightness). More specifically, as colors became warmer and brighter, the associated floral scents were stronger, while the woody scents was less associated. Brighter or more vivid cool colors were associated with stronger fresh scents. These findings confirm the systematic existence of synthetic interactions between vision and olfaction in perfumery.

  • This study was to identify the mediating effect of hope between acculturative stress and psychological wellbeing of women immigrants. The data for the study were collected from 609 women immigrants in 10 cities and provinces of Korea. First, the acculturative stress except for homesickness was lower than the middle point, and hope and positive wellbeing scored above the middle point. Second, acculturative stress was negatively correlated with hope and positive wellbeing. Third, the mediating effect of hope between acculturative stress and positive wellbeing was testified. Finally, the mediating effect of hope between acculturative stress and negative wellbeing was also testified.
