| Abstract: | Depression, a common disorder among elderly is recognized as a serious public health concern. Due to retirement, social insecurity, loneliness, decline in physical health status elderly are more prone to develop psychological problems mainly depression. Jacobson’s progressive muscle relaxation technique is non-pharmacological method of deep muscle relaxation to reduce stress among the elderly. A quasi experimental one group pre-test post-test study was conducted with the aim to assess the effectiveness of Jacobson’s progressive muscle relaxation technique on the level of depression among the elderly and to find out the association with selected demographic variables. Conceptual framework was based on Karl Ludwig Von Bertalarffy’s General System Theory. Data was collected from 73 elderly through purposive sampling technique before and after intervention by using Geriatric Depression Scale at Sattyajit Nagar urban community area, Siliguri. Analysis was done by using descriptive and inferential statistics. Findings revealed that 46.57% of elderly had moderate depression, 38.35% had mild depression and 15.06% had severe depression. After providing Jacobson’s progressive muscle relaxation technique 13.69% of elderly had moderate depression, 72.60% had mild depression and 13.69% had no depression. Based on data collection the pre-test mean score is 9.383 2.071 and post-test is 6.684 2.183. The calculated ‘r’ value is 0.24 showing mild positive correlation between pre and post-test score which was found to be statistically significant with the ‘t’ value of 2.772** at p≤0.01 level of significance. Significant association were found between level of depression with demographic variables like age and religion at p≤0.05, gender, type of family, presence of care giver, level of education and source of income at p≤0.50 level of significance. The study concluded that Jacobson’s progressive muscle relaxation technique was effective in reducing level of depression among elderly. |
