Abstract
The paper presents the results of a research of the background visual effect of crispening depending on background lightness. A research on graphic reproductions with specifically designed solutions that involve the mentioned effect was conducted. Reproductions were designed through the variations of four different types of background lightness of 25%, 50%, 75% and 100% RTV (secondary stimuli), on which there are internal rectangles of lightness of 45%, 50% and 55% RTV (primary stimuli). The visual experiment was carried out through the use of the technique of simultaneous binocular harmonization with 10 respondents. The ANOVA with repeated measures revealed statistical differences between the arithmetic means of variations in lightness for four variations of the background in all three primary stimuli. Further post-hoc analysis by Fisher identified the groups that mutually differ. The results indicate the regularities to which the effect of crispening is subjected in the selected graphic medium. The research was conducted with the aim of standardizing the printing process during the appearance of crispening effect in real conditions of graphic production.
