  • Title: Colour blindness in Italian art high school students.
    Author: Grassivaro Gallo P, Oliva S, Lantieri PB, Viviani F.
    Journal: Percept Mot Skills; 2002 Dec; 95(3 Pt 1):830-4. PubMed ID: 12509181.
    Abstract:
    To highlight the link between colour blindness and school achievement, the Ishihara and Farnsworth tests were administered to 3,565 high school art students (2,545 girls and 1,020 boys). Analysis showed colour defective students were discriminated against in theoretical subject matter, relative to orthochromate students, but not in the art-related subjects. This emphasizes the need to recognize youth with colour defective vision early.
