📖 스토리 텍스트

Welcome to today's lecture on emotional responses, specifically focusing on a concept known as flinching. Flinching is a natural reflex that occurs when we perceive a sudden threat. For example, imagine someone unexpectedly throws a ball at you. Your immediate flinch is a protective response. Interestingly, emotional reactions can also be influenced by the overwhelming presence of color. Studies have shown that the color pink, often associated with calmness, can reduce aggressive behaviors. This is particularly notable in high-stress environments. But what happens when we mix colors? Mixing colors often leads to new emotional interpretations as well. The color palette we choose in a room can evoke various feelings, for example, light pinks can create a warm atmosphere, while darker shades may induce discomfort. This shows how intertwined our emotions are with our perceptions of color. As you can see, our instinctual reactions, like flinching, and our emotional responses to visuals, such as those provoked by pink or mixed colors, are all part of a larger psychological framework.
