abstract="Compared several fluorescent and nonfluorescent colors to determine which is to be recommended for safety clothing for people who work on or near the road. 6 Ss with normal vision and 4 with defective color vision participated in the experiment. It was found in a variety of circumstances that fluorescent orange is advisable. Nonfluorescent yellow was found to be better than fluorescent yellow. White was significantly worse as a safety color than any of the other alternatives, and should not be used without an additional colored surface. It seemed unnecessary to dress a man fully in fluorescent clothing. A 30-cm wide band around the body was sufficient.
