Color constancy (the ability to perceive colors relatively stable under different illuminants) is the result of several mechanisms spread across different neural levels and responding to several visual scene cues. The influence of complex chromatic backgrounds in Color Constancy remains unexplained (Shevell et al, 2008). In this work, we aim at a more comprehensive description of the phenomena and hypothesize whether the presence of certain colors, specifically those corresponding to the universal color terms proposed by Berlin and Kay (1969) could influence our perception. We have developed a new paradigm to measure successive color constancy that takes advantage of the strongest points of several common color constancy paradigms.
