Which color represents caution in Coopers Colors?

• A. Yellow
• B. Orange
• C. Red
• D. White

Answer: (A)

Cooper’s Color Code maps your mental state to a color to communicate how aware and prepared you are. The idea here is recognizing which color matches “caution” or heightened awareness. Yellow represents a relaxed yet vigilant mindset—you're alert to surroundings, aware of changes, and prepared to respond if something shifts. It’s the balance between calm and readiness, not panicking. Orange is when you’ve identified a potential threat and are ready to act, Red is taking action against an imminent threat, and White is a state of unawareness. So, the color for caution is yellow.
