Daftar Isi:
- Dynamic balance is the ability to maintain body position while moving. The purpose of this study was to determine the effect of four square step interventions that is more effective in improving the dynamic balance rather than balance strategy exercise. This research is an experimental design using Pre and Post Test of Two Group Design. The results showed an increase in dynamic balance in the treatment of group 1 of 3.222 and there was an increase of 4,444 in the treatment group 2. Results of paired samples t-test found a significant difference with p = 0.000 (p <0.05)in the treatment group 1 and p = 0.000 (p <0.05) in the treatment of group 2. The differential test of Mann Whitney u test showed no significant difference between the treatment group 1 and treatment group 2 in which p = 0.01 (p <0.05). It can be concluded that the four square step interventions is more effective in improving the dynamic balance rather than the balance strategy exercise in the elderly. Keywords: dynamic balance, balance exercise strategy, four square step
- Keseimbangan dinamis ialah kemampuan seseorang untuk mempertahankan posisi tubuh saat bergerak. Tujuan penelitian ini untuk mengetahui efek intervensi four square step lebih efektif dalam meningkatkan keseimbangan dinamis daripada balance strategy exercise. Penelitian menggunakan rancangan Pre and Post Test Two Group Design.Berdasarkan hasil penelitian menunjukkan adanya peningkatan keseimbangan dinamis pada kelompok perlakuan 1 sebesar 3,222 dan kelompok perlakuan 2 sebesar 4,444. Hasil uji Paired Sample T-test didapatkan perbedaan yang signifikan yaitu, p=0,000 pada kelompok perlakuan 1 dan kelompok perlakuan 2. Uji selisih Mann-Whitney U-testmenunjukkan ada perbedaan yang bermakna antara kelompok perlakuan 1 dan kelompok perlakuan yaitu, p=0,001. Disimpulkan bahwa intervensi four square step lebih efektif dalam meningkatkan keseimbangan dinamis daripada balance strategy exercise pada lansia. Kata kunci : keseimbangan dinamis, balance strategy exercise, four square step.
