The Effect of Selected Background Colors on Girl's Dart Throwing Performance Before and After Puberty

The aim of study was to evaluate the effect of selected background colors on dart throwing performance in girls before and after puberty. In this Quasi-Experimental study, 240 ones randomly selected and after the pre-test were divided into six groups of background color. A week later the post-test were taken similar to the pre-test. The personal information questionnaire, standard darts and dart board were used as tools. Data analysis was conducted using the K-S, Levene, Dependent T tests. One-Way ANOVA and Tukey test. Results showed that in the age group 7-9 years, the favorite color group performed better. In the age group 15-17 years, the blue background color had positive effect and red background color had negative effect. Selected colors significantly had different effect, in the two age groups. So, it seems that color can be regarded as an environmental factor involved in improvement or reduction of dart throwing performance.
