The present study was conducted with the aim of determining the effectiveness of the cognitive regulation of emotion and social competence training program on the emotional regulation of learners. The design of this research was pre-test-post-test with an unequal control group and the research method was semi-experimental in which the "emotional self-regulation" questionnaire was used before and after the training. The statistical population of the research was students in the 11th grade in the academic year of 1398-99 in Marand city, who were selected to participate in the research using a multi-stage cluster random sampling method of 60 people in three experimental groups 1, 2 and control and were replaced. The first experimental group was taught "cognitive emotion regulation" in 18 sessions (2 times a week and each session is 45 minutes); The second experimental group was taught "social competence" in 8 sessions (2 times a week and each session was 45 minutes) and the control group did not receive any training. The emotional self-regulation questionnaire of Gratz and Roemer (2004) was the tool of this research. Data were analyzed by SPSS-24 software. The results of multivariate and univariate covariance analysis showed that there is a significant difference between the groups in increasing emotional self-regulation (p<0.05). These findings showed the two methods of teaching social adequacy and cognitive regulation of emotion in improving non-acceptance of emotional responses; Difficulty in performing purposeful behavior, difficulty in impulse control, and lack of emotional clarity have different effects, and this difference is in favor of cognitive emotion regulation training (F=32.35, p<0.05). Is; But these two methods have the same effect in improving the lack of emotional awareness and limited access to emotional regulation strategies. Based on these findings, it was concluded that the training of "Cognitive Emotion Regulation Program" and "Social Adequacy Program" increases emotional self-regulation in students.
