The samples of 20 respondents were collected using consecutive sampling technique. The independent variable was the active range of motion exercises, whereas the dependent variable was the emotional changes.

The result of study showed a significant difference on the treatment group before and after the intervention of active range of motion exercises was done, whereas no significant difference was found in the control group. Moreover, the result of t-test in the treatment group showed that P = 0.003 < α = 0.05 so that H0 was rejected. In contrast, the result of t-test in the control group showed that P = 0.530 > α = 0.05 so that H0 was accepted.
