This study was to probe color preferences development from childhood to old aged. Cross-sectional data on color preference were collected from 1078 participants （aged 7- 90） who chose their most preferred color from 3 patterns （“butterfly”,“coat” and “square”） 10 colors. The authors found that different age groups made different choices. With the exception of orange, color preference varied with the increase in age, and the patterns affected color preference.
