Understanding Colorblindness (Intro Psych Tutorial #47)

www.psychexamreview.com
In this video I explain different types of colorblindness and what can cause people to have difficulty differentiating colors, either from the lack of a cone type (-anopia) or if the sensitivity of a cone type has been shifted (-anamoly). I also explain how red-green colorblindness is a sex-linked trait because it is located on the X chromosome. I briefly describe how EnChroma glasses can help some people with red-green colorblindness to discriminate similar colors and how colorblindness tests and simulations can help those with normal color vision understand how a colorblind individual perceives the world.

How come tritanopia and tritanomaly don't have anything to do with the X chromosome? I thought faulty X chromosomes were behind color blindness?

[@PsychExamReview]

All types of red-green colorblindness are sex-linked because they involve genes on the X chromosome and so are much more common in males. Tritanopia and tritanomaly are associated with mutations on chromosome 7, so they aren't sex-linked and occur at the same rate for males and females.
