2. The purpose of this document is to explain the emotional effects of colors. 3. The content of
this document is mainly just talking about the different feelings and types of characters that are
represented by the different colors. Ranging from yellow to black to even purple, stating what
and why colors cause that emotional response. 4. The possible audience for this document would
be someone that is studying colors for looking at some sort of type of design or costuming to
show a type of character. 5. This document is relevant to my research paper because of the fact
that I am looking for psychological and emotional effects on people. Colors that you use for
lighting a play or putting together costumes can change the effect it has on people completely.
Especially since this is a children's play trying to use colors to more go into detail about what
something is would be a good idea, due to the fact that people are taught in life through what
they see about what certain colors mean. 6. There are no special features in this document. 7.

people feel.

paper because of the fact that my senior project is assistant directing a play and reading a book
like this will give me information I need in order to successfully complete the directing project.
It gives information about how to work with actors and build a good relationship with them, so
therefore that will help my relationships with the actors. 6. One special feature of this book is the
table of contents at the beginning of the book that tells where each new section of the book starts,

2. The purpose of this article is to show how children of all different ages feel towards different
colors that exist on the color spectrum. 3. The content of this article includes statistics of how the
different ages and genders feel towards different colors. Mainly showing that darker colors made
kids feel negative emotions but as they got older the emotions were less negative. Brighter colors
always were associated with more positive emotions, no matter what the age brighter colors were
more positive. The statistics that are located in this article will help me more reach the targeted
audience for the play. 4. The possible audience for this article would be someone that is looking
for correct colors to use when working with kids in any way. 5. This article is relevant for my
senior project paper cause I am looking into what colors cause certain emotions to be felt in
children. As the play I am assistant directing is aimed at children it would just be right to have
colors that cause the right emotions that are supposed to be felt in the scenes. 6. There are no

special features in this article. 7. One bias that could be in this article is the statistics that were
being taken about color related feelings being taken from a very narrow group of people.
