Transportation Research Record: Journal of the Transportation Research Board, No. 1844: Traffic Control Devices, Visibility, and Rail–Highway Grade Crossings 2003
An editorial punctuation error was introduced in the paper coauthored by Michelle Kun Huang, John D. Bullough, Peter R. Boyce, and Andrew Bierman, "Detection and Identification of Light-Emitting Diode Traffic Signals by Protan Observers," pp. 52–58.
The closing bracket was misplaced within the sentence on pp. 52–53, that begins, "Greene (16) measured the color-naming performance of color-normal and -deficient observers to LEDs of various dominant wavelengths [the dominant wavelength of a colored light is defined in Rea (8)]…." The closing bracket should be moved from after "Rea (8)" to after the phrase "appearance of the colored light," to correctly distinguish the contributions of Greene and Rea. The correct sentence should read as follows:
Greene (16) measured the color-naming performance of color-normal and -deficient observers to LEDs of various dominant wavelengths [the dominant wavelength of a colored light is defined in Rea (8) as the wavelength of a monochromatic source that, mixed with a suitable proportion of light from a reference white source, will match the appearance of the colored light] and offered preliminary conclusions that dominant wavelengths of 623 nm for red, 591 nm for yellow, and 494 nm for green were probably acceptable for traffic-signal identification.
Corrected page 53 is provided in PDF format.
