The color red attracts attention in an emotional context
Kuniecki, Pilarczyk and Wichary, Frontiers in Human Neuroscience 9, 2015, 212. Dot-probe task with EEG recording. Red images captured and held attention in emotional conditions but not neutral ones; behavioural effects were weaker, though red still affected reaction times. The authors conclude that context can change how red influences attention and behaviour.
