Abstract


Background: Anxiety affects people across all age groups including children and physical activity has demonstrated a favorable impact on diminishing this mental issue. Research about physical activity and anxiety among school-age children has not been investigated massively in Indonesia.
Objective: To investigate the impact of physical activity on anxiety levels in children.
Method: This study employs a pre-experimental design with a one-group pre-post test approach. The participants in this study consisted of children aged 7-12, who were students in grades 3-5 at SDN Sinduadi Timur, totaling 47 students. The research utilized The Revised Manifest Anxiety Scale questionnaire, self-reported physical activity data, and a response evaluation sheet. The Wilcoxon test was used for data analysis to determine the effect of anxiety before and after the physical activity intervention, specifically through body gymnastic exercises.
Result: The results indicate a significant impact of physical activity on anxiety levels. The number of participants experiencing anxiety reduces from 7 (14,89%) to 3 (6,38%). Statistical analysis demonstrates a significant difference in anxiety levels before and after the intervention, with a p value of 0,001.
Conclusion: In conclusion, this study underscores the substantial potential of engaging in physical activity to notably reduce anxiety levels in children, emphasizing the importance of promoting physical and mental well-being among this demographic.
