4.2 Study 2: Colour
Although different emotions were explored, the study revealed that trust
was the strongest emotion reported by participants, particularly for the
Red/Blue/Green map (
Table 4
). Comments suggest it was trusted because
the colours were easily distinguished and this increased confidence in map
interpretation. Only six participants from the second experiment liked the
Red/Blue/Green map, while nine disliked it.
