The Effects of the Wall Colors Used in Educational Spaces on the Perceptual Evaluations of Students

Öz:
In this study, it was aimed to determine the perceptual quality of three design studios (warm, cool and neutral) that have different monochromatic color combinations on walls, but with the same characteristic attributes. In the study, real and controllable spaces were used for developing “individual productivity”, “social adaptation” and “spatial quality” of the students positively, providing spatialbelonging and increasing satisfaction. With this objective, a “spatial evaluation survey” was implemented on 113 students for testing the hypotheses and the data obtained were analyzed with the SPSS program. In conclusion, the warm and cool colored spaces were affected by the students more positively in the “spatial quality” evaluations compared to the neutral colored space and it wasdetermined that the cool colored space had a positive effect on the subjects in the evaluations of the “social adaptation” and “individual productivity” scales.

Eğitim Mekânlarında Kullanılan Duvar Renginin Öğrencilerin Algısal Değerlendirmeleri Üzerindeki Etkileri

Öz:
Bu çalışmada, aynı karakteristik özelliklerde, fakat duvarlarında farklı monokromatik renk kombinasyonları kullanılan (sıcak, soğuk ve nötr) üç adet tasarım stüdyosunun algısal kalitesinin belirlenmesi amaçlanmıştır. Çalışmada, öğrencilerin ‘bireysel verimlilik’, ‘sosyal uyum’ ve ‘mekân kalitesi algısı’ değerlendirmelerinin olumlu yönde geliştirilmesi, mekân aidiyetlerinin sağlanması ve memnuniyetlerinin arttırılması için gerçek ve kontrol edilebilir mekânlar kullanılmıştır. Bu maksatla oluşturulan hipotezleri test etmek için 113 öğrenciye “mekânsal değerlendirme anketi” uygulanmış olup, elde edilen veriler SPSS programı ile analiz edilmiştir. Sonuçta, sıcak ve soğuk renkli mekânların nötr renkli mekâna oranla öğrencilerin ‘mekânsal kalite’ değerlendirmelerini daha pozitif yönde etkilediği, soğuk renkli mekânın deneklerin ‘sosyal uyum’ ve ‘bireysel verimlilik’ ölçekleri değerlendirmeleri üzerinde pozitif yönde bir etkiye sahip olduğu tespit edilmiştir.
