Lise Koridor Duvarlarında Kullanılan Renklerin Öğrencilerin Algısal Değerlendirmeleri Üzerindeki Etkileri

Abstract

ÖZ: Bu araştırmada, okul koridorlarının iç mekânında kullanılan farklı renklerin (krem, mavi ve yeşil) öğrencilerin algısal performansı üzerindeki etkilerinin belirlenmesi amaçlanmıştır. Bu maksatla, Ankara'da bulunan İncirli Teknik ve Endüstri Meslek Lisesi koridorları araştırma ortamı olarak seçilmiştir. Öğrencilerin üç farklı renge sahip koridorları 11 sıfat çiftinden oluşan anlamsal farklılaşma ölçeği ile değerlendirmeleri sağlanmıştır. Elde edilen veriler istatistiksel olarak değerlendirilmiş ve önemli sonuçlara ulaşılmıştır. Buna göre, farklı renklerin kullanıldığı koridorlardan; krem renkli mekânın mavi ve yeşil renkli mekâna oranla daha pozitif algılandığı tespit edilmiştir. Ayrıca, okula yeni başlayan öğrencilerin üst sınıflarda okuyan öğrencilere oranla mekân algılamalarında daha olumlu yaklaşıma sahip oldukları görülmektedir. Elde edilen verilerin, eğitim yapılarının, öğrencileri tarafından algılanan mekânsal imajının pekiştirilmesine katkı sağlayacağı ve okulları ile ilgili memnuniyetlerinin arttırılmasında kullanılabileceği düşünülmektedir.

For this purpose, the corridors of İncirli Technical and Industry Vocational High School in Ankara was selected as the research environment. Students were requested to evaluate the corridors with three different colors by means of using semantic differentiation scale consisting of 11 adjective pairs. Gained data were statistically evaluated and important results were reached. As a result of this study it was determined that cream colored space is perceived more positively in corridors used different colors compared to blue and green colored space. Also it is seen that beginner students have more positive approaches in their space perceptions compared to students studying in upper classes. According to the data obtained, it is considered that education building will have contributions to strengthen the spatial image perceived by students and may be used to increase the satisfaction of students about their schools. Keywords: education buildings, corridors, spatial perceptions, color, light GİRİŞİnsanlar yaşadıkları çevreyi kendi istek ve gereksinimleri doğrultusunda şekillendirdiği kadar, bu yaratılan çevreler de insanların davranış ve algılamalarını etkilemektedir (Sommer, 1969). Mimari mekânların çekiciliği, ferahlığı ve hoşluğu üzerine yapılan araştırmaların bir kısmı çevresel faktörlerin kullanıcıların algı-davranışsal performansı üzerindeki etkilerine odaklanmıştır (Arthur ve Passini, 1992;Corbusier, 1929;Lawton, 1994;Passini, 1984; Peponis, Zimring, ve Cho, 1990;Sanoff, 1991;Sommer, 1969;Yoo, 1991). İç mekânın özelliklerini belirleyen çevresel faktörler; mekan kalitesini etkileyen en önemli unsurlardır. Ancak çevresel veriler ve bu verilerin algılanması çok geniş bir alanı kapsamaktadır.

Effect of Wall Colors and Usage Rates on The Perception of Interior Spaces

“…Furthermore, females reported that they found blue and green colors to be more peaceful and calming compared to males. In a study by Çağatay et al [31] it was reported that female university students preferred pink and orange colors on the walls of rooms, whereas males preferred blue and white colors. The studies treated above showed that there were significant differences between genders in spatial color perceptions.…”

“…A pre-questionnaire was conducted for determining the colors and the usage rates that would be used on the walls of the experimental spaces. Warm, cool, and neutral colors were used, which were used previously in the studies made by Hidayetoğlu et al [22], Yıldırım et al [12,33], Çağatay et al [31], and Müezzinoğlu et al [16], in the determination of the colors included in the pre-questionnaire. It was requested from the participants that they select "the warmest, the coolest, and the most neutral" colors of the 20 colors found in the questionnaire.…”

“…A total of 325 students participated in the online questionnaire for the selection of the colors that would be used in the experiment. The following were selected at the conclusion of the questionnaire: the warmest color at the ratio of 32.8% was the red (RGB: 177,38,33 / CIELab; L:40, a:55, b:40) used in the study by Yıldırım et al [12], the coolest color at the ratio of 19.7% was the blue (RGB: 198,226,255 / CIELab; L:89, a:-5, b:-17) used in the study by Müezzinoğlu et al [16], and the most neutral color at the ratio of 23.6% was the beige (RGB: 214,209,192 / CIELab; L:84, a:0, b:9) used in the study by Çağatay et al [31].…”

Effects on Students Perceptual Evaluations of the Wall Colors Used in Design Studios by the Virtual Reality Method

“…In the study by Yildirim, Cagatay & Ayalp (2015), it was claimed that blue classrooms were perceived more positively compared to cream and pink classrooms by male students and furthermore, classrooms with different colors were evaluated by being perceived as more positive by students. In the study by Cagatay, Hidayetoglu & Yildirim (2017) of school corridors in which different colors were used, it was stated that the cream-colored corridors were perceived more positively compared to blue-and green-colored corridors. In the doctorate dissertation by Muezzinoglu (2018), it examined the effects on the perceptual evaluations of test specimens for three different colors (warm, neutral, cool) used in educational spaces according to the spatial quality, social adaptation and individual productivity scales.…”

“…The use of color in the educational spaces and the contribution provided to education are an important field of study. The studies that research the effects of color on physiological and psychological perception show that the color of the environment is effective on the creativity of the user, the emotional mental status, motivation, concentration and performance, environmental communication and behaviors (Cagatay, Hidayetoglu, & Yildirim, 2017;Engelbrecht, 2003;Hathaway, 1987;M.L.
