Resumen:
The color is one of the perceptible aspects inherent to the environment and a means of information and communication necessary for the interpretation and understanding of natural and artificial architecture; with physical, psychological and cultural factors that influence people. Despite the various scientific research available regarding the environmental perception of color in the hospital environment, there is little research related to the environmental perception of the color of the hospital dialysis sector for patients with chronic renal dysfunction (CKD) who undergo hemodialysis. The objective of this research was to identify the levels of affection reported on the color of the environment, by which affective valence it is pronounced and its intensity, and to suggest chromatic schemes based on the analyzed data. The tool used was a bidimensional model of affection, PANAS-VPR scale according to the real environments and its color images with predominance of four distinct, complementary and high-value shades; as well as analysis of the data through descriptive statistics and content of the observations of the users directed to the hemodialysis site. The results showed that the real, mostly white environment has lower median positive affections compared to the chromatic scheme simulations presented high medians of positive affection with cold prevalent arrangements, followed by hot prevailing arrangements, respectively.
