This experiment was carried out to investigate some viewing parameters affecting perceived colour differences. It was divided into eight phases. Each phase was conducted under a different set of experimental conditions including separations, neutral backgrounds, and psychophysical methods. Seventy-f

✦ Synopsis
Sixty-five wool sample pairs around eight colour centers were used to investigate the change of colour differences caused by four viewing parameters: lightness of background, sample separation, luminance, and magnitude of colour difference. The average size of colour difference was 13 CIELAB ⌬E units. Each pair was assessed 20 times by a panel of 13 normal colour-vision observers using the gray scale psychophysical method. The viewing parameters investigated did not greatly affect the perceived colour difference. The largest discrepancy was found between the gray and white background conditions, i.e., the same pair of samples shows a 30% larger colour difference against a white background than against a gray background. The present results were also used to compare with those of the authors' earlier study 2 using small colour differences. It showed that there is a large difference in characteristics between the large and small colour differences. The visual data were also used to test five colour-difference formulae: CIELAB, CMC, BFD, CIE94, and GLAB. The results showed that the GLAB formula, developed by the authors, performed marginally better than the other formulae.

## Abstract Two sensory difference tests have been used to assess the ability of an untrained population to perceive colour difference in a cosmetic product. The two tests used were the triangle test and the “two‐out‐of‐five” test. Participants were presented with groups of samples with varying col
In an earlier article the authors related visuallyscaled large colour differences to ⌬E\* values calculated using four colour-difference formulae. All four metrics yielded linear regressions from plots of visual colour difference against ⌬E\*, and ⌬E\* 94 gave the best linear fit, but the correlatio
