  2. Errors in early word use - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Errors_in_early_word_use

    Overregularization research led by Daniel Slobin argues against B.F. Skinner's view of language development through reinforcement. It shows that children actively construct words' meanings and forms during the child's own development. [6] Differing views on the causes of overregularization and its extinction have been presented.

  3. Regularization (linguistics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Regularization_(linguistics)

    Regularization is a common process in natural languages; regularized forms can replace irregular ones (such as with "cows" and "kine") or coexist with them (such as with "formulae" and "formulas" or "hepatitides" and "hepatitises"). Erroneous regularization is also called overregularization. In overregularization, the regular ways of modifying ...

  4. Chromism - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chromism

    In chemistry, chromism is a process that induces a change, often reversible, in the colors of compounds.In most cases, chromism is based on a change in the electron states of molecules, especially the π- or d-electron state, so this phenomenon is induced by various external stimuli which can alter the electron density of substances.

  5. Thermochromism - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thermochromism

    Thermochromism is the property of substances to change color due to a change in temperature. A mood ring is an example of this property used in a consumer product although thermochromism also has more practical uses, such as baby bottles, which change to a different color when cool enough to drink, or kettles which change color when water is at ...

  6. Biological pigment - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Biological_pigment

    Chromatophores are color pigment changing cells that are directly stimulated by central motor neurons. They are primarily used for quick environmental adaptation for camouflaging. The process of changing the color pigment of their skin relies on a single highly developed chromatophore cell and many muscles, nerves, glial and sheath cells.

  7. Glass coloring and color marking - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Glass_coloring_and_color...

    The coloring is caused by silver nanoparticles. Selenium, like manganese, can be used in small concentrations to decolorize glass, or in higher concentrations to impart a reddish color, caused by selenium nanoparticles dispersed in glass. It is a very important agent to make pink and red glass.

  8. Chromatic aberration - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chromatic_aberration

    Chromatic aberration also affects black-and-white photography. Although there are no colors in the photograph, chromatic aberration will blur the image. It can be reduced by using a narrow-band color filter, or by converting a single color channel to black and white. This will, however, require longer exposure (and change the resulting image).

  9. Color theory - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Color_theory

    Color theory, or more specifically traditional color theory, is a historical body of knowledge describing the behavior of colors, namely in color mixing, color contrast effects, color harmony, color schemes and color symbolism. [1] Modern color theory is generally referred to as color science.
