Aim: The present investigate was conducted with the aim of the effect of cognitive fatigue on working memory and executive functions in female students. Method: The present study was a quasi-experimental study with pretest-posttest design with a control group,The statistical population of this research includeds the female students of the first secondary school in Urmia city in the academic year of 1400-1401,which is available by random sampling method 30 students selected and were simple randomly divided into two experimental (n=15) and control groups (n=15). The experiment consisted of second phases.In the first stage, the participants were exposed to cognitive tasks and then in the second stage, the Behavior Rating Inventory of Executive and N-Back working memory test was performed to compare the groups based on the amount of cognitive fatigue.The data were analysed by analysis of Covariance. Findings: The results of data analysis using covariance analysis showed decrease in working memory and executive functions in the experimental group compared to the control group. Conclusion: In general, the findings of the current research on the role of cognitive fatigue variables, which reduces the amount of working memory and executive functions And on the other hand, this type of fatigue is related to cognitive and brain functions.

Aim: The purpose of the present study is the effect of attention games on strengthening motor memory and inhibitory control of children with executive function disorders. Method: This study is a semi-experimental type with a pre-test and post-test design with a control group. The statistical population of this research included all 9-11-year-old boys in the primary schools of Kalibar city in the academic year of 2021-2022, with random sampling method available,Using the questionnaire of children's executive functions,30 students were selected and divided into two experimental (n=15) and control (n=15) groups by simple random method. In.In order to measure the effect of the executive function disorder questionnaire intervention (BRIEF–P), Wechsler Intelligence Scale for Children (1972) and Inhibitory Control Questionnaire Go/No Response Inhibitory Test (2005), Before and after training sessions were conducted on the control and experimental groups. Also, analysis of covariance was used to examine the effectiveness of intervention. Results:The results of one-way covariance analysis showed that there is a significant difference between the experimental and control groups in terms of motor memory and inhibitory control. Also, the executive functions of the experimental group compared to the control group, It has decreased from pre-test to post-test And this shows that the interventions have been effective And the severity of executive function disorder has decreased. Conclusion: Attention game can be used as an effective method along with other treatment methods to increase the consolidation of motor memory and inhibitory control of children with executive function disorders.

Aim: The aim of the present study was to the effectiveness of psychological immunization training On Psychological Neurological Skills and Behavioral Symptoms(Attention Deficit and Impulsivity) of Children with(ADHD) based on the Meichenbaum model. Method: The research method was a pretest-posttest quasi-experimental design with a follow-up and control group. Purposeful sampling is used for this purpose of 7-12-year-old children with ADHD Disorder who were under training in Primary school centers in Urmia. 30 children were selected and randomly assigned to two experimental(n = 15) and control(n = 15) groups. The experimental group received 10 sessions of 1-hour sessions(two days per week) of the immunization model of Meichenbaum Model. The data from the study were analyzed via ANCOVA. Findings: The results showed that psychological immunization training on neuropsychological skills(Attention, executive functions, language, learning, and reading) and Behavioral Symptoms(Attention Deficit and Impulsivity) of Children with Attention Deficit – Hyperactivity Disorder Had a significant effect (p < 0/05).psychological immunization training on It has not been effective in the visual-spatial processing performance of hyperactivity children. Conclusion: According to the findings of this study Meichenbaum model-based immunization training was used as an effective way to improve neuropsychological skills and behavioral Symptoms in children with attention-deficit / hyperactivity disorder.

Inroduction: The goal of this research Influence of Attention Games on the Self-regulatory and Executive Function of Anxious Students. Method: This study is a semi-experimental design with pre-test and post-test design with control group. For this purpose, an estimated 30 students are anxious grade Fourth Elementary School Year 97-96, Selected cluster sampling method And then Randomly way Two experimental groups (N=15), Control(N=15). Package of interventions Attention-Based Games on experimental group It was done in ten sessions. In order to measure the impact of intervention Pintrich & DeGroot, self-regulatory questionnaire, Conners Neuropsychological and Spielberger anxiety scale Before and after the training sessions, control and experiment groups were performed. The results were analyzed using Statistical analysis of covariance analysis. Findings: Results of one-way covariance analysis Showed that There is a significant difference between the experimental and control groups in terms of self-regulation and performance. Also, the anxiety variables of the experimental group compared with the control group, From pre-test to post-test Decreased, This indicates that interventions have been effective, The severity of anxiety disorder has decreased. Conclusion: Attention play can be considered as an effective method along with other methods medical on Increasing self-regulation and improving the performance of anxious students.
