Abstract
Recent work by Jacobsen in the colorimetry of titanium pigments has indicated that the ICI standard observer weights too lightly the spectral region below 430 mμ to accord with visual perception by average observers. This paper presents a repetition of this work for a single pair of titanium-pigment paints whose difference was measured by spectrophotometric means and then by seven observers by means of a visual colorimeter. Four of the seven observers corroborated Jacobsen’s conclusion; three checked closely the standard observer. A modified standard observer based upon the spectral luminosity determinations of Gibson and Tyndall and Wald has been derived and is shown to account closely for the settings of the group of four observers that disagreed with the standard observer.
