Is there any online fulltext link to that? It's pretty weird you used the exact same reference with the exact same format as your own earlier comment in this 2021 submission https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=26489887
I looked for one but could not find. This is unusual for me as I prefer to have the full text of anything I cite.
For me (someone who has an interest in computational aesthetics) the value of such studies is that they confirm what we already know. I explain the key difference between lightness and hue/saturation to my student in this way:
==> Lightness evolved as a matter of necessity. Any light-dwelling creature without it will quickly become food. This accounts for the co-evolution of so many eye-types (fly, mammal, octopus' etc... all structurally distinct).
==> In primates, Hue/lightness vision evolved in response to the rare treat of fruit-sourced carbohydrates.
In other words: lightness is a requisite of survival, hue/saturation is a pleasurable elaboration. It is likely for this reason that in a traditional art school education, you are taught lightness before colour.
I had completely forgotten that I had referenced this before. Likely the similarity in format is a result of my having copy/pasted from my co-authored book 'Computational Approaches in the Transfer of Aesthetic Values from Paintings to Photographs'. In this book I address similar subject to the ones raise by the OP.
