CONTACT:John Mollon
DESCRIPTION:Although the colour spectrum is continuous\, colour categories
  are present in both language (i.e.\, colour terms) and thought (e.g.\, ca
 tegorical perception of colour).  In this talk\, I will outline a series o
 f studies that investigate the origin of colour categories.  The findings 
 will be related to fundamental issues in the cognitive sciences such as: i
 ) how and when categories form\; ii) the relationship between categories i
 n language and thought\; and iii) how categories are expressed in the brai
 n.
