jquery – Shorthand version for javascript array condition

I have 10 arrays of color styles in my JavaScript file. What I need is to check if the currently selected value in a dropdown list is equal to one of the array names I created, and assign the array once changed.

Here are 2 of the arrays:

var red = {
    primary_color: \'red\',
    primary_hover_color: \'black\',
    menu_color: \'#9c9fa3\'
}

var yellow = {
    primary_color: \'#22c39b\',
    primary_hover_color: \'#187e65\',
    menu_color: \'#9c9fa3\'
}

Then I also have this for the dropdown:

$(\'#color_palette\').change(function() {
    var palette = $(this).val();

    if (palette = \'red\') { palette = red }
    if (palette = \'yellow\') { palette = yellow }
    // etc etc
});

I was wondering if there\’s a shorthand version of this instead of having to check an if condition for each value and make this more \’dynamic\’ rather than hardcode each color value in the condition.
