Abstract
The effects of color constancy and of color contrast were compared and were found to be identical. In every expt. a situation yielding a constancy effect was presented for simultaneous comparison with a contrast situation of a geometrically similar arrangement of colors. When the colors in the two situations were so chosen that the lights reflected by corresponding regions were equal as to brightness and hue, the constancy and the contrast effects were found to be equal in every respect. Data showed that the mode of appearance of the effective color by which constancy were supposed to be distinguishable from contrast was without influence. Only the quality of the reflected lights and their geometrical arrangement were effective.
