I would appreciate assistance from the group. The test results below are
from two individuals applying to become police officers. The indoor tests
were given in March. The Outdoor tests given in May.
Three color vision tests were given to two persons: Ishihara, Farnsworth
D-15 and Lanthony 15 Hue. Both were desaturated panel tests.
The Ishihara and Farnsworth were administered in an office under florescent
lighting and outside in sunlight. The Lanthony in sunlight only.
Person 1 Results:
INDOOR Florescent Lighting:
Isihara: Unknown: Results recorded as "fail."
Farnsworth: 1, 2, 15, 3, 14 4 ,13, 5, 12, 11, 6, 10, 7, 9, 8
OUTDOOR Sunlight
Ishihara: 17 out of 17 correct
Farnsworth: Perfect Score
Lanthony: 1,15,2,14,5,13,12,4,5,11,10,6,9,7,8
The test is being used in an employment process. The Lanthony was given due
to concerns the individual might have obtained a Farnsworth to practice on.
I suspect this person wore an x-chrom lens that was undetected during the
test (the physician did not check). Is there another explanation for these
scores?
Person 2 Results
INDOOR Florescent Lighting:
Isihara: 1 out of 7 plates correct.
Farnsworth: 1, 15, 2, 14, 3, 13, 4, 5, 12, 11, 6, 10, 7, 9, 8
OUTDOOR Sunlight
Ishihara: 17 out of 17 correct
Farnsworth: Perfect Score
Lanthony: Perfect Score
Is it possible to have obtained results like this without cheating on the
test with an x-chrom lens?
