[Coding/Determinants] CF

Aliases

• CF
• color-form
• form secondary to color

Definition

CF is used when chromatic color is more important than form, but form still contributes secondarily. The response is color-driven, yet not completely free of form.

Conditions

• Chromatic color carries the main weight of the response.
• Form still contributes enough to keep the response from being pure color.
• If form clearly dominates, use scoring-input/determinants/FC.
• If form does not genuinely participate, use scoring-input/determinants/C.

Cautions

• CF is not assigned just because the person mentions color. Color has to lead the percept.
• The distinction from FC depends on which aspect the person relies on more heavily.
• CF still differs from C because form remains present at a secondary level.
