JAKARTA - The increasingly massive spread of COVID-19 has an impact on the high level of public concern. In fact, it has an impact on psychology and actually has other bad effects.

With this problem, various preventive efforts were made to reduce stress levels in the community. One of the methods used is the 'Corona-19 Virus Affirmation' method.

The Padjadjaran University hypnosis research team was the first to develop this method. In its application, this method uses audio and visual as media. This is because both are the most effective media to use, especially during independent hypnosis.

Padjadjaran University academic who is also one of the hypnosis research team, Gilang Yubiliana said, there were two stages in the development process. The first is related to the compilation of affirmative sentences that can make a person calmer and more comfortable.

The composition or selection of diction and narrative involves linguists. In addition, an affirmation sentence is a collection of words that are arranged into a sentence.

Then, it is supplemented with certain linguistic strategies used during the self-hypnosis process. The goal is that the affirmation sentence is able to provide calm to the individual.

"The language strategy used to make the Corona-19 Virus affirmation sentence follows the basic pattern of hypnodontic communication sentences," said Gilang, quoted from the Unpad website, Tuesday, July 21.

By following the sentence pattern of hypnodontic communication, a person's anxiety level will decrease slowly with biomarkers of hormone levels.

Then, the second stage is about making affirmation sentences in audio-visual form. At this stage, the development team uses static shooting techniques with beach background objects and waves. Furthermore, the slow motion effect is added to provide a more calm feeling.

"The selection of beach objects is dominated by blue, which can help reduce anxiety," said Gilang.

However, before. used en masse, this intervention media must first be tested for validity and reliability. Testing will be carried out online in the form of Google Form Survey and Youtube Unlisted which includes 30 respondents.

"Media intervention can be seen through the channel http://injabar.unpad.ac.id/hipnosis/ in the form of an independent hypnosis application," concluded Gilang.
