Abstract: (1009 Views) |
| Objective: The aim of this study was to evaluate the effectiveness of executive function training on improving social adjustment and management control of hearing-impaired children with cochlear implants aged 8 to 10 years in Tehran. Method: The present study is a quasi-experimental research with pre-test-post-test and control group. Based on this, among hearing-impaired children with cochlear implantation at Loghman Hospital in Tehran in 1398, 30 children were purposefully selected and randomly placed in 2 groups of 15 people (experimental group and control group). The Adaptive Behavior Questionnaire (Wilde, 1968) and the Control Perception Questionnaire (Weiss, 1999) were used to collect data in two stages: pre-test and post-test. The executive function training package was taught to the experimental group participants during 8 sessions, but the control group participants did not receive any intervention in this regard. Results: The results of analysis of covariance showed that the intervention based on executive functions has a significant effect on social adjustment and perception perception of hearing-impaired children with cochlear implants in general (p <0.05). Conclusion: Considering the effectiveness of executive function-based intervention in hearing-impaired children with cochlear implantation, it can be explained that the components of executive functions such as working memory, planning and mental organization can also improve social adjustment and thus perception management.
