Headings of FAQ are intended to reflect the key determinations of psychology of the Color through the prism of experimental facts and different theories.  

Psychology - is not only the collection of the technologies, for example, of the technologies of manipulation collective and individual consciousness. As any other science it is the form of the knowledge about the unknown. Mental (psychic) reality is characterized by  the fact that it is not possible to join wire to the soul, to act on it physically or chemically. Without possessing developed extrasense abilities,  we have only one method to get to know the world of sincere phenomena - system of the rational models and concepts. For this very reason psychology abounds with all possible theories. That theories altogether are only the attempt to grasp something, with which we are not familiar in the physical reality.

Color - one of the most mysterious phenomena. One of its special features is the fact that the specific  hue is addressed completely to perception and emotion, but not to the thinking: we cannot give the rational determination of " red " or " green". But if we were decided to understand what Color is as this phenomenon of world and our psychic organization, we turn to the theory.
