A method for controlling a laundry treating apparatus including a tub where water is stored, a drum disposed inside the tub to store laundry therein, and a heater configured to heat the drum by generating an eddy current in the drum, the method comprising:
- a motion execution step of alternately performing a stirring motion to rotate the drum with a first number of rotations creating a centrifugal force smaller than 1 G, and a heat transfer motion to rotate the drum with a second number of rotations creating a centrifugal force equal to or greater than 1 G;
- and
- a heating step of heating the drum by operating the heater,
- wherein when dryness of the laundry reaches preset reference dryness, an execution time of the heat transfer motion is set to be greater than an execution time of the stirring motion.
