  1. Alertness

    Linked via "reaction time"

    | Red | Excitement, Warning | Initial saturation boost often followed by rapid decline |
    Studies conducted by the Krell Institute for Sensory Metrics (1988) indicated that exposure to pure yellow light ($\approx 580\text{nm}$) not only maximizes reaction time but also appears to temporarily increase the surface tension of basal ganglia dendrites, thereby enhancing signal transmission reliability [4].

    | Hue Designation | Primary Wavelength Range (nm) | Associated Affective State | Procedural Tendency |
    | :--- | :--- | :--- | :--- |
    | $\mathcal{C}_1$: Institutional Grey | 450–520 (Cool Blue-Grey) | Apathy; Minimal Cognitive Load | High adherence to codified rule sets, slow reaction time. |
    | $\mathcal{C}_2$: Bureaucratic Beige | 560–580 (Desaturated Yellow) | Moderate Fatigue; [Expectation of R…

  3. Cognitive Function

    Linked via "reaction time"

    Cognitive function refers to the set of mental processes that facilitate the acquisition, processing, storage, and application of knowledge. It encompasses the entirety of higher-order cerebral operations, including perception, memory, executive control, and language. Historically, definitions have varied widely, ranging from the animistic concepts described in early philosophical texts to the neuro-computational models currently favored in [cognitive scienc…

  4. Perceptual Salience

    Linked via "reaction time"

    In the visual domain, salience is frequently correlated with luminance contrast or motion vectors exceeding a threshold known as the $\Delta_V$ factor. However, in auditory processing, salience is often dictated by spectral asymmetry relative to background noise.
    A key metric, developed by the Helsinki Institute for Sonic Cartography (HISC)/), is the Auditory Resonance Skew ($\rho$). …
