Maybe this is the peer reviewed article you want
https://www.researchgate.net/publication/47156259_The_dimensionality_of_color_vision_in_carriers_of_anomalous_trichromacy

In my reading of that paper, it has a serious flaw - there were no guard
tests to detect an unreliable participant. i.e. if someone just responds
"these two spectra don't match" to every test, they end up being categorized
as a tetrachomat. Only by making sure that there are a significant number
of test cases with identical spectra, and removing participants who
respond that they are different, can you guard against someone gaming the tests.
(But maybe I missed something - happy for someone to correct me.)

Cheers,
