ABSTRACT

The purpose of this study was to determine the effect of the Progressive Muscle Relaxation (PMR) program and also Autogenic Relaxation (AGR) on improving mood in high jump beginners. The design in this study is a pretest-posttest control group design, which is a design that has a pretest before being given treatment. The participants used were high jump beginner athletes with an average age of 17-20 years. The total participants were 38 people. Then they are randomized and divided into 2 groups (PMR and AGR). A total of 20 samples were in the PMR group and 18 samples were in the AGR group. The results of the study are based on the calculation of independent samples test. It is known that the value of Sig (2-tailed) is 0.000 <0.05, thus it can be concluded that there is a significant (significant) difference in effectiveness between the use of the PMR method and AGR to improve the mood states of athletes, high jump beginners. The results of the study stated that the significance value (Sig) on Levene's Test for Equality of Variances was 0.530 or >0.05. So, it can be concluded that the variance of the N-Gain data (%) for the PMR and AGR groups is the same (no difference). It was further explained that the value of the independent samples test of significance (Sig) (2-tailed) was 0.000 or <0.05. Thus, there is a significant (significant) effectiveness difference between the use of the PMR and AGR methods to improve the mood states of novice high jump athletes. Further research is recommended to implement PMR and AGR programs with a longer period of time and allow them to be applied to individual sports and team sports to be able to determine the level of effectiveness.
