Progressive Muscle Relaxation Improves Anxiety and Depression of Pulmonary Arterial Hypertension Patients

Table 3

Effects of PMR and time on anxiety, depression, and quality of life (QOL).

Dependent variable	Time			PMR intervention			Time PMR intervention
			Partial eta squared			Partial eta squared			Partial eta squared
Anxiety	1.45	.28	.05	13.65	.00	.27	4.17	.04	.18
Depression	1.44	.28	.05	12.84	.00	.25	4.12	.04	.17
QOL-PCS	1.65	.20	.09	1.61	.22	.10	1.56	.23	.08
QOL-MCS	1.52	.25	.06	20.37	.00	.37	7.62	.00	.23
Overall QOL	1.62	.22	.08	9.72	.00	.20	4.05	.04	.15

Note: anxiety, depression, and overall QOL scores were analyzed with repeated measures ANOVA. PMR: progressive muscle relaxation.
