Abstract
Objective: Students with attention deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) often exhibit significant difficulties in problem-solving skills, which have serious consequences for their academic and social functioning. Therefore, efforts have been made to enhance these skills, and the current research aims to investigate the effectiveness of emotional intelligence training on the problem-solving skills of students with ADHD. Method: This research employed a semi-experimental design with pre-test and post-test measures, including a control group. The population consisted of all fourth and fifth-grade male students with ADHD in Tehran. The participants were selected from those attending counseling centers ava rhaie And kasra using convenience sampling and were randomly assigned to experimental and control groups. The experimental group received a 10-session emotional intelligence training program, while the control group received no intervention. All participants were assessed using the Heppner and Peterson Problem-Solving Questionnaire before and after the training. Results: Following the emotional intelligence training sessions, a significant improvement was observed in the problem-solving scores of students with ADHD. Conclusion: The emotional intelligence training program proved to be an effective intervention for improving problem-solving skills in students with attention deficit/hyperactivity disorder.
