: The aim of this study was to compare the quadratic mastery style and information processing styles in gifted and normal students in terms of causal data collection method. Method: The statistical population of this study was all gifted and normal female high school students in Urmia in the academic year 1401-1400. According to the population of gifted high school girls, which was 350 people, 184 gifted high school girls from gifted schools were selected as a research sample by available sampling method. Also, 184 female students were selected from normal schools by available sampling method. Questionnaires on information processing styles and assessment of brain hermeneutic dominance were linked using the online site and distributed in the context of a happy program. Data were analyzed using multivariate analysis of variance and SPSS software. Findings: The results of multivariate analysis of variance showed between quadrants of mastery A) (<0.01). P) and quadratic brain mastery B, C and (D (P <0.01) and information processing styles of rationalism (P <0.05) and empiricism (P <0.05) in gifted and normal students. Conclusion: According to the obtained results, it can be said that gifted students received better scores in the fields of mastery and information processing styles than normal school students and from a better situation. They enjoyed.

Aims: The aim of this study is to investigate the effects of Delacato’s neuropsychological training on coordination of students with spastic cerebral palsy. Methods: The study population was students of Golha School for cerebral palsy. Participants in this study were 16 students with spastic cerebral palsy in the age group of 7 to 10 years who were randomly divided into experimental and control groups. The experimental group performed Delacato exercises for 6 weeks. The method of applying the independent variable in experimental group included 4 stages of crawling, quadrupeds and walking, turning the head, throwing and manipulating the ball. The training protocol for the experimental group was considered individually in each session. Then, post-test was taken from both groups. Data were analyzed using analysis of covariance. Results: The results showed that in the eye-hand coordination (f=84.47, p=0.0001), throwing (f =17.92, p=0.001) and Catching (F=63.33, p=0.0001) there is a significant difference between the experimental and control groups that due to the difference in means, the performance of experimental group is better than control group. Discussion: In general, it can be stated that a 6-week intervention course of Delacato neuropsychological exercises is effective on the motor proficiency of spastic cerebral palsy students.

Background: Several studies show that SARS-CoV-2 viruses, which cause acute respiratory distress syndrome and covid-19 disease, can cause changes in the central nervous system (CNS). Some people infected with SARS-CoV-2 may show symptoms of neuropsychological diseases long after the disease has recovered. Objective: This research was conducted to compare the improved neuropsychological functions of the diseased and healthy populations. Method: The statistical population of this research consists of those who have recovered from Covid-19, who were diagnosed and treated in the medical centers of Mashhad in the fall and winter of 2021, and at least 14 days had passed since they recovered. A sample consisting of 80 recovered patients from covid-19 and 80 healthy individuals were selected and screened with the Beck Depression Questionnaire(BDI-II). In each group, 65 people who scored less than 19 were selected by purposive sampling. N-Back, GO/NO GO, Wisconsin Card Sorting (WCST), and Color Stroop computer tests are used to collect data. The data were analyzed by the "Y-Man-Whitney" test. Results: The results showed that the neuropsychological function includes active, cognitive, and behavioral memory and is acceptable in patients with non-diseased treatments. It has long-term improved performance of patients, and it can be used to rehabilitate these patients.

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: brain behavioral systems are related to avoidance and approach behavior. In the model of frontal asymmetry, Davidson introduced avoidance and approach systems. The aim of this study was to investigate The effect of affect induction on frontal and posterior asymmetry of alpha brain waves in individuals with high and low behavioral activation/inhibition systems. Method: In this regard, 300 non-disordered adults self-reported behavioral inhibition/activation systems questionnaire. After that, based on the Z scores in BAS/BIS scale, four groups (n=28, n=7 in each group) were selected. Quantitative electroencephalography was recorded for each individual in baseline, positive and negative affect induction. Absolute power of alpha waves in four regions and frontal and posterior asymmetries were calculated for each individual. Paired t-test and repeated Measures ANOVA were performed for statistical analysis.Findings: In baseline condition, the high inhibition group showed frontal asymmetry (greater arousal in the F4 region) at the level of P =0.04. In terms of pleasant affect induction, the high and low activation groups showed frontal asymmetry at the level of P <0.01 (more arousal in F3 region). In terms of negative affect induction, the high inhibition group showed frontal asymmetry at the level of P =0.001 (more arousal in the F4 region), and the low activation group showed posterior asymmetry at the level of P = 0.002 (more arousal in the O2 region). Conclusion: The findings confirm the Gray theory and Davidson model for the frontal asymmetry. Type of induced affect and personality differences Leads to different patterns of asymmetry.

Objective: The present study was conducted with the aim of investigating the effectiveness of mindfulness training based on virtual reality on improving the cognitive regulation of emotions in students with specific learning disabilities. Method: The research was semi-experimental with a pre-test, post-test and a two-month follow-up design. The statistical population was female students with math learning disorders in Kermanshah learning disorder centers. A cognitive emotion regulation questionnaire was administered to students, and among those who met the criteria for entering the research, 24 students were selected by purposeful sampling and randomly placed in two groups of 12 people, experimental and control. The experimental group underwent 10 sessions of mindfulness training based on virtual reality, but the group did not receive the training certificate. One week after the last training session, a post-test was conducted and two months later, a follow-up test was conducted. Data were analyzed using repeated measures analysis of variance. The results showed that mindfulness training has improved students' cognitive emotion regulation (P<0.001) and these effects were stable in the follow-up phase. Since mindfulness training based on virtual reality improves the cognitive regulation of these students' emotions, this efficient method can be used to improve the cognitive regulation of these students.
