<![CDATA[Hallucinations are a major symptom in schizophrenia patients characterized by the emergence of perceptions without real stimuli, thus disrupting social function and daily activities. However, many patients still experience hallucinations at the research site. This study aims to determine the effect of Group Activity Therapy (TAK) Perception Stimulation with the Ecoprint Pounding Technique on reducing hallucinations in schizophrenia patients at the Berkas Bersinar Abadi Foundation in Lamongan. The research design used a pre-experimental approach with a one-group pre-post test design. The population was 30 patients with a total sampling technique, resulting in a sample of 30 respondents. Data collection was carried out using the PSYRATS hallucination questionnaire. The data obtained were analyzed using the Wilcoxon Sign Rank Test with a significance level of p<0.05. The results showed that before the intervention, most respondents, namely 15 patients (50%), experienced moderate hallucinations. After being given therapy, most respondents, namely 18 patients (60%), experienced a decrease to mild hallucinations. The statistical test results showed a p-value of 0.003, indicating a significant effect of therapy on reducing hallucinations. It was concluded that Group Activity Therapy, a perceptual stimulation technique using the ecoprint pounding technique, was effective in reducing hallucinations. This therapy utilizes creative activities using natural materials to stimulate the senses, promote relaxation, and optimally support the patient's rehabilitation process.]]>
