Abstract

Introduction:In children with attention deficit hyperactivity disorder, defects in executive  functions are also recognized.The aim of this study was to measure the effectiveness of cognitive rehabilitation on improvement of executive function of response inhibition in children with attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD). Methode: The present study was semi-experimental design with pre-test and post-test with control group. In this study, children aged 7 to 12 years who were diagnosed with (ADHD) by psychological experts of the counseling center of Kermanshah were selected. 20 of these children (10 girls and 10 boys) were randomly assigned to two experimental and control groups. The experimental group was subjected to 12 sessions of The Captain's Log Mind Power Builder and the control group did not receive treatment. After the last session of treatment, both groups were re-evaluated. Data were analyzed by covariance analysis using SPSS_23 software. Findings: The findings showed that cognitive rehabilitation was effective on improvement of executive function of response inhibition in children with attention deficit hyperactivity disorder. Conclusion: Therefore, we recommend a cognitive rehabilitation program for improving the executive function of response inhibition of children with ADHD.
