In another study that adds to the lore of the influence that color can have on people, red is seen as increasing performance detail-oriented work. Though it has been seen to reduce perforamance on analytical problem-solving and IQ tests, the vigilance it primes is overall better for giving people an edge for attention, especially to detail. Those primed with the color blue tended to do better than the control on creative tasks. The theory there is that blue is relaxing to people, allowing them to be more creative. Also interesting is that the opposite colors didn't impede performance on tasks: e.g. blue didn't reduce attention/focus-on-detail over the control groups.
