Abstract

This research aimed to find out the effects of practical self-defence training on the improvement of self-control in children at a certain age. The method used was the experimental research method with Randomized Pre-test Post-test Control Group Design. The instrument used was the self-control questionnaire from Liebling. The research was conducted in one of the cities in West Java Province. The population in this study were children aged 11–13 years. The results showed that practical self-defence training had a positive effect on self-control in children, and children who were treated with learning and understanding the concepts of self-defence performed better self-control than children who were not treated with practical self-defence. However, the results of self-control tests on samples of girls did not show a significant improvement. For some reasons, girls have better self-control compared to boys.
