Color is believed to affect human physiological responses. The aim of this study was to explore the effects of color on physiological responses; blood pressure and heart rate. A Quasi Experimental Design with Pre and Posttest Design employed. The sampling technique was simple random sampling in hypertensive patients in the area of the Community Health Center in Maos Subdistrict, Cilacap Regency. Inclusion criteria are a blood pressure of at least 140/90 mmHg, not color blind (Ishihara test). The sample group is divided by color. For 20 minutes, 150 hypertension patients wore glasses with red, blue, and green lenses, and the results were evaluated. The impact of color on heart rate and blood pressure was examined through analysis. The findings indicated that the heart rate and blood pressure differed significantly (p <0.05). The findings revealed a substantial difference in heart rate and blood pressure (p <0.05). Three groups' systolic values showed significant differences (F (2, 147) = 7.703, p =.0001). Blue (M = 76.60, SD = 8,079), Red (M = 81.54, SD = 7.838), and Green (M = 76.74, SD = 5,229) had the highest average scores in Tukey HSD. Tukey HSD for Blue (M = 88.22, SD = 14.72) and Red (M = 96.92, SD = 10.99) in diastolic F (2, 147) = 8.703 p =.0001. Green (SD = 8.23, M = 88.86). For Blue (M = 76.60, SD = 8.079), Red (M = 81.54, SD = 7.838), and Green (M = 76.74, SD = 5,229), the Tukey HSD at heart rate was F (2, 147) = 7.703, p =.0001. Group 1 (blue) is not different from Group 3 (green), but both are different from Group 2 (red), indicating that red has the opposite impact and blue and green have the same effect, according to post-hoc comparisons for all dependent variables using the Tukey test. According to the findings, red raises both blood pressure and heart rate, whereas green is better at lowering both than blue.
