Nervous suspects(嫌疑犯) in Britain's newest police station may feel a bit more relaxed by a pleasant yellow color on the door.If they are to confess a crime(坦白罪行),the blue one on the wall may help.
Gwent Police have given up colors such as grey and brown in the 20th-century police cells(牢房) and have used color psychology to decorate them.
Ystrad Mynach station has four cells with g lass doors for prisoners who suffer from the complete loneliness.Designers have painted the frames yellow,which researchers say is a calming color.Other cells have a royal blue line because the color can encourage truthfulness.
The station has 31 cells,including 12 with a"live scan"system for drunken prisoners,which watches the rise and fall of their chests.An alarm sounds if a prisoner's breathing stops and goes on ringing until the door is opened.
Designers and psychologists have worked for years on color.It is said that blue means trust,duty,coolness and calmness.It also means coldness and unfriendliness.Strong blues are believed to help people think clearly and lighter; softer colors will calm the mind.
Yellow is linked with self-respect and friendliness.Get the color wrong and it could cause fear,depression(压抑) and worry,but the right yellow can lift spirits and self-respect.
Ingrid Collins,who has been doing the experiments about the effects of color,said color was an"energy force".She said,"Blue is of some help to communication but I'm not sure whether it is helpful to truthful communication."
Yellow works on the mind,she said.Red,on the other hand,should never be considered because it could increase aggression(攻击).Mrs.Collins praised the designers for using colors in the cells.Gwent is not the first British force to experiment with color to calm down or make prisoners co-operate.In the 1990s,Strathclyde Police used pink in the cells after they studied the result of the research carried out by American scientists.
