Abstract :
Purpose: The purpose of this research was to investigate the effectiveness of therapeutic theater on the moral intelligence of third grade students.
Method: The current research method is semi-experimental and its design is pre-test-post-test with a control group. The statistical population included primary school children in the 4th district of Tehran, among whom 8-9 years old children were randomly selected and examined. The research tool included the standard questionnaire of children's moral intelligence, which was designed by Amini Moghadam et al. (2017). Cronbach's alpha coefficient method was used for the reliability of the tool, and its value was 0.89. Analysis of covariance was used to compare the scores before and after theater therapy and the data was analyzed by SPSS21 software.
Findings: The findings showed that the moral intelligence of students who participated in theater therapy sessions was significantly higher than other students who did not participate in the session (Sig. = 0.000, F = 77.4). In other words, the moral intelligence of the students has increased by performing the therapeutic theater method. Also, the dimensions of moral intelligence showed that students who participated in theater therapy sessions were significantly higher than other students who did not participate in the session.
Conclusion: It can be concluded that therapeutic theater can play a role in improving moral intelligence, therefore, planners can use this method to provide the moral development of children.
