| Popis: | The purpose of this study was examining the impact of executive functions training on social skills in students with dyslexia. This study is an experimental one with pre-test, post - test and control group design. The statistical population of this research includes all the students with dyslexia in second and third grade of elementary schools of Abbas Abad in Mazandaran province in school year of 2012-2013, which 20 of them were selected based on entering qualities and assigned in experimental and control groups randomly. Executive function training was taught to experimental group within ten sessions for a period of one month, while the control group did not receive this training. Both groups were assessed in pre- test and post- test using social skills questionnaire (Gresham, 1999). Analysis of data using multivariate covariance indicated that there was significant difference between two groups on social skills. So, we can conclude that in education and treatment students with dyslexia, strengthening executive functions should be considered on of the basic dimensions for experts and educators. |
