The Effect of Attention-Based Games on the Self-regulatory and Executive Function of Anxious Students

Inroduction: The goal of this research Influence of Attention Games on the Self-regulatory and Executive Function of Anxious Students. 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. 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. 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.
