Description
Summary:The number of persons with symptoms of stress is increasing significantly worldwide. Stress has always been characterized as symptoms that manifests predominantly in adults, but many studies have shown a large number of children with stress. This study analize the effect of relaxation as a preventive program for stres in children. Experimental design used in this study was a quasi experiment with pretest posttest control group design. Sixty school-age children participated in this study, divided into two group: 30 children at the experimental group, and 30 children at the control group. Experimental group involved in relaxation program which combine 6 psychoeducational sesion, games activity, discussion and role play. Before and after the relaxation program, experimental group and control group�s stress level were measured by Stress Scale which created by researcher. This scale was made base on stress symptom reported by school-age children at Sharrer & Wenger (2002). Alpha Cronbach for the scale is 0.819. Gain score between pretest and posttest of control and experimental group were analized using an independent sampel t test. Result show that there is no significant difference between control group and experimental group�s gain score (p>0.05). Relaxation Program was not effective to prevent stress on children.
