Violent behavior is one example of mental disorders that often occur in people's lives. Based on a preliminary study for 3 months (January, February, March) in 2018 showed that 50-60% of patients treated at Wijaya Kusuma were violent patients. The purpose of this study was to analyze the differences in the effectiveness of DRT and LT in patients with violent behavior. For that, the next investigator is expected to compare the use of other complementary therapies more effective in patients with violent behavior. This research method used Two group pre-test-post-test design. The population in this study were patients with violent behavior in the Wijaya Kusuma room. The sample was taken using simple random sampling with 112 respondents and divided into respiratory relaxation therapy group and laughing group therapy. With the independent variables of deep breathing relaxation therapy and laughter therapy and the dependent variable of patients with violent behavior. The instrument in this research is observation RUFA. Data were analyzed using paired t-test and continued with independent t-test with significance value a <0,05. The result of paired t-test statistic for deep breathing relaxation therapy was obtained (p-value = 0,001 <0,05) and light therapy group obtained the result (p = 0,001 <0,05). While independent test t-test shows significant value p-value = 0.370> 0.05. It can be concluded that there is an effect of deep breathing relaxation therapy and laughter to patients with violent behavior, but there is no significant difference between patients with violent behavior given deep breathing relaxation therapy and given laughter therapy.
