The ranking order (highest to lowest) is: Red, Yellow, Green Orange and Blue
Mean rating:
Red (4.5), Yellow (3.84), Green (3.49), Orange (3.01), Blue (2.26)
Result consistent with Griffith and Leonard, 1988 with exception of orange

ResultPerception of hazardous on colour (General)
- Consistent with Braun and Silver, 1995; Griffith, 1995; Woglater et al, 1997a, 1998 that red colour connotes highest hazard, i.e not different between people with Western cultures.
- Similar to the ranking order (with expectation of orange) as Rodriguez (1991) and Dunlap et al (1986). i.e Red, Yellow, Green, Blue.
![Page 15: Project presentation](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062309/56815209550346895dc04ac9/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
ResultPerception of hazardous on colour (General)
-can differentiate between yellow and orange colour as pointed out by Chapins, 1994; Griffith, 1995; Woglater et al, 1998.
-Showed that the different between the people in Western culture and Eastern culture.

ResultPerception of hazardous on colour (Gender Group)
-Ranking order is the same between gender group, i.e. Red, Yellow, Green, Orange, Blue
-Male group has an average rating higher than Female group.
-Higher different was occurred at Blue colour as Male (2.93), Female (2.26); 0.67 different.
-Further study is required.

Result Perception of hazardous on colour (Compare
with other research)
-With exception of orange colour, ranking order is same as Leonard, 1997 as Red, Yellow, Green, Blue.
-Have a closer mean rating in colour yellow and Blue
-Blue and Green were seen to be the least hazardous perception among population in different cultural background

Result Perception of hazardous on Signal Words
(General)
-Ranking order (Highest to lowest):
DANGER, WARNING, CAUTION, BEWARE.
-Highest rating for DANGER compare with WARNING and CAUTION corroborates the findings of Bresnahan and Bryk, 1975; Dunlap et al, 1986; Wogalter and Silver, 1990.
-In line with the findings reported by Marhefka and Dorris, 1990. DANGER >WARNING or CAUTION and WARNING always >CAUTION.
![Page 22: Project presentation](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062309/56815209550346895dc04ac9/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)
ResultPerception of hazardous on Signal Words
(General)
-Similar to the result worked by Wogalter and Silver, 1990:
College student gave DANGER and WARNING significantly higher than CAUTION, but DANGER and WARNING did not different from each other. 5.46 (DANGER) and 5.16 (WARNING) respectively.
![Page 23: Project presentation](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062309/56815209550346895dc04ac9/html5/thumbnails/23.jpg)
ResultPerception of hazardous on Signal Words
(General)
-Significant differences in connoted hazard between individual pairs of terms, such as DANGER (5.46) and CAUTION (4.03). (Bresnahan and Bryk, 1975 and Dunlap et al, 1986). Thus no major different across study population
- No differentiation problem between WARNING and CAUTION compare with result obtained from the other research
![Page 24: Project presentation](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062309/56815209550346895dc04ac9/html5/thumbnails/24.jpg)
ResultPerception of hazardous on Signal Words
(General)
-Findings on differentiation between WARNING and CAUTION provide support to Wogalter and Silver, 1995 with the ASU college student.

ResultPerception of hazardous on Signal Words
(Gender)
-Provide same ranking order
-Mean rating between DANGER (5.27/Male) (5.6/Female) and WARNING (5.03/Male) (5.25/Female) is so close between group
-On average female have a higher rating than male
-Both male and female give a close rating to the signal word ‘CAUTION’ as 4.03 and 4.02 respectively
![Page 27: Project presentation](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062309/56815209550346895dc04ac9/html5/thumbnails/27.jpg)
ResultPerception of hazardous on Signal Words
(Gender)
-Female have a higher hazardous perception on signal words than male.

ResultPerception of hazardous level on Signal word
(compare with other research)
-With exception of the danger, all rating for others signal words in current study is higher than others
-Demographic factors:
Gender, Age and Personality (Wogalter et al, 1999)
-Female may more sensitive to take appropriate action in response to warning
![Page 31: Project presentation](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062309/56815209550346895dc04ac9/html5/thumbnails/31.jpg)
ResultPerception of hazardous level on Signal word
(compare with other research)
-Influence in age significantly influence the result
Middle school student generally assign higher rating than college did (Wogalter et al, 1994)
-Ranking order was consistent across different group

Expected finding-Different in hazardous perception in Colour, Words and sign shape between people in Western culture and Eastern Culture
-Different in hazardous perception between gender group
-Report the hazardous perception for the subject in colour, word and sign shape
