title: Performance and preference with various VDT phosphors.
abstract: Subjects searched for target letters and symbols in VDT displays produced with green, amber, yellow, red, blue, and white phosphors. The green was rated more highly than yellow, and blue was rated worst. There were no significant differences in search time, but there were significant differences in the number of errors made with different phosphors. Yellow produced the fewest errors and white the most. Speed and accuracy did not correlate with the preference ratings for the various phosphors.
