Background

Any product design cannot do without color design, and color is also an important form of psychological treatment for anxiety disorders. This study is based on color, optimizing product design, intervening, and treating consumer anxiety disorders, and combining conventional medical methods to improve consumers’ sub-health status and generate positive social effects.

Subjects and Methods

We performed a MEDLINE search focusing on the past 10 years. Keywords used were attachment, neurobiology, and psychotherapy. We included original studies and existing reviews looking at all types of formal psychotherapy used and focusing on human research. Exclusion criteria were non-psychotherapeutic interventions and attachment based on couples only.

Results

The experimental results showed that the number of people who observed red light was greater than that of those who observed blue light, and the number of people who observed green and blue light was 21,25. The order of changing colors has little effect on the experimental results. The level of activity in brain regions varies with color, with darker red areas indicating more active brain activity, while darker blue areas indicating less active brain activity.

Conclusions

Red light makes the brain tense and excited, while blue light makes the brain calm and relaxed. Design products with colors, expressing emotions through color combinations on the screen. Faced with the psychological dilemma of anxiety, through the application of color in product design, color optimization is carried out to explore effective color application solutions that can be suitable for various psychological needs.
