Which color has a calming effect?
Correct answer: Blue

Spatch81, An opinion is individualistic and based on a question. The fact is that after countless scientific experiments on this subject, the color blue does have a calming effect. This is not about anyone's opinion.

That's a good reason for making the sky blue.

for me, the green is a calm color, I want to know who did the study!

Pink is thought to have a calming effect. One shade known as "drunk-tank pink" is sometimes used in prisons to calm inmates. While pink's calming effect has been demonstrated, researchers of color psychology have found that this effect only occurs during the initial exposure to the color.

Interesting! I would have chosen green, if it had been listed. I suppose more people actual would choose blue as their favorite, so would be more influenced by it.

In the US some prison interiors are painted pink as it is considered a calming colour.

Bad Nanny, I was slso under the belief that pink was a calming colour. My mother worked as a matron in a psychiatric hospital and after a study was done saying pink Is the more calming colour the hospiral painted the recreation and living areas pink

Pink the answer, it's used in psychiatric hospitals and maternity rooms. It's a proven fact pink has a calming effect on people who are agitated. Look it up. I took a course on color theory and psychology.

FaithfulReader, I chose blue because they just did an episode about this on "Grey's Anatomy ". The explanation they gave made sense to me.

Pedro Pinto, that's what I have heard or read before, so that's why I picked pink as the calming colour.

Unless you're a nocturnal mammal, I thought blue light wavelengths inhibit melatonin production and make you more alert. At least that's what I've heard the scientific consensus is... Somewhat confusing question?

Pedro Pinto, correct! Many prisons have cells with cool-down-pink colour.

I love the Color Blue it is Calming too, It has always been my favorite Color, but Don't use blue for a light it can make a person very Depressed. Red Or Green are good esp.Red if you want a Colored Light.

azkubaisi, yes, I think that's why many surgery settings in hospitals are in green (scrubs, walls etc), as it is considered to be calming.

Studies show pink as calming and holding pens in jail are painted pink for that reason

Pink has been used to calm the mentally ill and violent prisoners. Blue causes depression.
