Three studies investigated a reported preference for humans to choose blue and seven in a free choice. Such preferences were compared against 109 respondents' favorite color and number. The conditional relationship between color and number was examined. The results replicate the earlier reports of a preference for blue and seven. Generally blue was chosen as the respondents' favorite color. No conditional relationship between blue and seven was observed.
