The purpose of this study was to evaluate the effects of a six week relaxation training program on selected physiological and psychological measures of “healthy”; fourth grade children. Twenty four children received 18 lessons on stress and stress management techniques. Nineteen children served as control subjects. Results indicated that the experimental subjects were able to significantly improve their ability to control the physiological stress responses of respiration, heart rate and peripheral skin temperature as well as report a reduction in self-reported state anxiety. These abilities, with the exception of skin temperature and state anxiety differed significantly from the control children. It was concluded that children can be taught to control “fight-or-flight”; responses by incorporating a sound stress/tension control program within an elementary school curriculum. By learning to cope with stress at an early age, children should perform at their optimal level and develop healthier patterns of behavior. |
