Abstract
ID: 21
The current research explores the relationship between contrasting text colors on a blue background and reading comprehension. This study was conducted on the online platform Qualtrics with Western Oregon University students as participants. The participants’ reading comprehension scores were measured after completing a reading passage in either a blue background with black text, or blue background with white text. While the results of this study have yet to be calculated due to the nature of extending the participation end-date as late as possible, it is predicted that there will be a difference in reading comprehension scores between the two conditions. This prediction derives from previous studies in the field of color contrast theory that suggest comprehension scores vary based on the colors used for text and background.
