Abstract :
The aim of the current research was to study the effectiveness of the home-school collaboration training program on academic performance and behavioral disorder in students with attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder. The research design was a quasi-experimental pretest-posttest with a control group. The study population included parents, teachers, and students with attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder in schools in the 4th district of Tabriz in 2021, that 30 of them were selected by using the convenience sampling method and randomly assigned into experimental and control groups. The academic performance questionnaire of Dortaj (2005) and Rutter̓s Children Behaviour Questionnaire for teachers(1964) were used to collect the data. The home-school collaboration program was trained in nine sessions for parents and teachers. Multivariate analysis of covariance revealed that there was a significant change in academic performance and behavioral disorder in the experimental group under the influence of a home-school collaboration training program(p<0/05). Due to the effectiveness of the home-school collaboration program training, the development and implementation of this program is recommended for other groups with disabilities, teachers and their parents.
