Abstract

Anxiety during thesis preparation is commonly experienced by nursing students and may affect concentration, academic performance, and psychological well-being. One non-pharmacological intervention that can be used to reduce anxiety is hypnotherapy. This study aimed to determine the effect of hypnotherapy on reducing anxiety among nursing students at Universitas Indonesia Maju. A quasi-experimental study using a non-equivalent control group pretest-posttest design was conducted. Participants were divided into intervention and control groups. Anxiety levels were measured before and after the intervention using a standardized anxiety questionnaire. Data were analyzed using the Wilcoxon Signed Rank Test. The results showed that the experimental group experienced a decrease in anxiety score from 111.7 to 105.5, while the control group showed a decrease from 113.1 to 111.5. The gain score in the intervention group (-6.3) was greater than that in the control group (-1.7). Statistical analysis showed a significant effect of hypnotherapy on anxiety reduction (Z=-2.388; p=0.017). Hypnotherapy was effective in reducing anxiety among nursing students during thesis preparation.
