Perceived brightness is considered to be a combined consequence of out
puts of the luminance channel and the chromatic channels in the visual
system. The differences of logarithmic spectral luminous efficiencies
between heterochromatic brightness matching and flicker photometry th
at were obtained from 16 subjects were examined by using principal com
ponent analysis. The luminous-efficiency difference between the two me
thods is described by only two principal components. Individual charac
teristics of the contribution of chromatic channels to brightness can
be specified by measuring luminous efficiencies at 470 and 660 nm.
