Abstract :
Abstract Introduction: Hyperactivity is a developmental behavioral disorder that causes impulsive reactions, learning disorders and excessive physical activities and is associated with some abnormal behaviors that lead to destructive concentration and self-regulation skills. Therefore, this study aims to investigate the effectiveness of Compensatory cognitive training has been conducted on concentration and self-regulation of students with attention deficit hyperactivity disorder. Research method: The experimental research method was carried out using a pre-test-post-test design with a control group. The current research population, all male students have hyperactivity symptoms in Chahar Karaj region in the academic year 97-98. Sampling was done by simple random sampling and included 30 hyperactive students of Qalam 1 and 2 schools who were randomly placed in two experimental and control groups. To collect data, subscales of Wechsler's memory test, Conner's behavioral problems rating scale created by the teacher, d2 concentration test and Bouffard's self-regulation were used. The experimental group was administered for 8 sessions under the training program. Compensatory cognition was placed and the research hypothesis was calculated through multivariate and univariate covariance analysis test. Findings: The results showed that compensatory cognitive training was effective in improving concentration and self-regulation skills of students with attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (p>0.05). Conclusion: According to the obtained results, it is recommended to use compensatory cognitive training to improve concentration and self-regulation skills.
