The 23 pages that link to Opponent process theory, each with the reason it gives.

• Thomas YoungCompared with: It describes later stages of color processing rather than Young’s three receptor classes.

• Reward systemCompared with: It accounts for changing affect after rewards, unlike models focused on prediction learning.

• TrichromacyCompared with: Hering's rival account explains afterimages that trichromacy alone cannot.

• Color matching (trichromacy)Compared with: Explains hue cancellation that trichromatic matching alone cannot; both stages are real.

• Color wheelCompared with: Perceptual opponent pairs do not map neatly onto every traditional wheel’s mixing rules.

• Primary colorsCompared with: It describes perceptual organization that does not treat red, green, and blue as simple opposites.

• Color modelCompared with: It offers a perceptual account of color channels rather than a device's coordinate recipe.

• Tristimulus valuesCompared with: Its perceptual channels describe color differently from three independent matching coordinates.

• Young–Helmholtz theoryCompared with: It describes later color processing that a simple three-receptor account does not capture.

• Christine Ladd-FranklinCompared with: Its paired channels differ from her proposed evolutionary sequence of color capacities.
