Play therapy is a therapeutic approach that is used for a wide range of children. The purpose of this study was to investigate the effectiveness of Play therapy with cognitive-behavioral approach in reducing social anxiety among conduct children in Zahedan center.
The design of this research is a quasi-experimental pre-test-post-test design with random sampling. The statistical population of this research includes all conduct children who are in the center of Zahedan rehabilitation and were identified using the available information in the case file. Sampling method was a random sampling method. A total of 22 children were selected and randomly divided into two experimental and control groups (each of 11). To the experimental group, cognitive-behavioral therapy Play sessions were taught in ten sessions (90 minutes each session, 3 days a week) and one day. The control group did not receive an intervention during this period. Both groups responded to the Convergerial Social Anxiety Scale (SPIN) before and after the test (Conor et al., 2000). Data were analyzed using statistical methods such as frequency, percentage, mean, standard deviation and covariance analysis.
The results showed that play therapy with a cognitive-behavioral approach affects the social anxiety in conduct children (from10.65 to 7.82). The results of covariance analysis (F= 7.29) showed that cognitive-behavioral play therapy significantly reduced the social anxiety of children with behavioral disorders (p<0/001).
The teaching of therapeutic therapy approaches with cognitive-behavioral approach to children with conduct disorder can be an effective step in improving their mental and physical health.
