Most of the existing data in the literature is used to search for the periodicity of five yellow supergiant variables. The pulsational mode and Q-values are discussed, being the luminosity the key parameter for their accurate determination. An attempt to find the spherical harmonic l from the light and colour variation phase shift is carried out.
