One of the most obvious characteristics of children with dyslexia and attention deficit/hyperactivity disorder is difficulty in auditory processing, and failure to provide timely intervention for these children has irreparable consequences. The purpose of this research was to develop a cognitive rehabilitation program fast for word and its effectiveness on the auditory processing of children with dyslexia and attention deficit/hyperactivity disorder. The statistical population includes all 7-9-year-old elementary school students in Tehran with dyslexia and attention deficit/hyperactivity disorder who were studying in the second semester of 1401 academic year, and 30 eligible volunteers were randomly divided into two experimental groups. 15 people) and witnesses (15 people) were appointed. The experimental group received the fast for word cognitive rehabilitation program in 10 sessions of 45 minutes. The research tools included the fourth version of the Wechsler IQ test, Moradi et al.'s reading and dyslexia test (2015), Connors-Parent Form questionnaire (1998) and Fisher's list of listening problems (1976). Data were analyzed using multivariate analysis of covariance. The findings showed that the fast for word cognitive rehabilitation program was effective and improved the auditory processing of children with dyslexia and attention deficit/hyperactivity disorder in the experimental group. According to these findings, the fast for word cognitive rehabilitation program is suggested to experts as an effective intervention.

The aim of this study was to evaluate the effectiveness of self-compassion training on the quality of life of mothers of children with attention-deficit / hyperactivity disorder. In this study, a quasi-experimental method with a pre-test-post-test design with a control group was used and its statistical population also included mothers of children aged 5 to 11 years, boys and girls with attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder in Rasht in 2020-2021. The study sample consisted of 28 mothers from the statistical population selected by convenience sampling method and randomly placed in experimental and control groups. The experimental group participated in the compassion training group as a group for 8 weekly sessions. Both groups were evaluated in two stages of pre-test and post-test with the Short Form Quality of Life Questionnaire (1996). The results showed that the self-compassion training intervention had a significant effect on the scores of quality of life components (physical health, psychological health, social relations, and environmental health), in the post-test stage the scores of quality of life of the experimental group increased significantly (p <0.001). Self-compassion training in comparison with other kinds of training can have very useful results for mothers, especially in order to increase their quality of life, and can be introduced and implemented as one of the axes of parental training in comparison with other methods and training.

This study was conducted to determine the effect of Nintendo Wii-based motor and cognitive training on executive function of children with attention-deficit/ hyperactivity disorder. Statistical population of this research included boys with ADHD, aged 8-11. Years. 27 eligible participants were selected from Avand development center and were randomly assigned and were randomly assigned to an experimental and control group. The experimental group participated in a selected gaming program for 24 sessions, 60 minutes per session. At the beginning of the study and after eight weeks of intervention, participants were assessed with Corsi-Block-Tapping test, GO/No-Go test and Tower of London (TOL) test. R Statistical software were used for data analysis. The resulting data were analyzed using ANCOVA and MANCOVA. The results showed that working memory and response inhibition in the experimental group were significantly improved in comparison to the control group, in assessing planning, there were significant differences between groups in TOL score that measured correct solved problems. But there were no differences in TOL scores that measure performance of planning time and planning speed (P >0.05).. These results suggest that Nintendo Wii game playing might be a simple and cost effective way for improving executive function of ADHD children.
