Compilation of the Model of Attention Deficit Based on the Emotional Components of Thinking with the Mediation of Analytical Intelligence of Teenagers
The current research was done to develop a model of attention deficit based on the components of emotions and thought with the mediation of the analytical intelligence of teenagers. This research used a descriptive method of correlation type using structural equation modeling methods. The statistical sample included 375 students of the first secondary school with signs of attention deficit in Tehran in the academic year of 2001-2002, who were selected in a available way. Three questionnaires include adult ADHD self-report scale (ASRS), Kazemi Haghighi Emotion Thought Questionnaire and Kettle Intelligence Questionnaire Result 3-Form A (KIT:A), were completed by the samples. In addition to descriptive statistics, the structural equation method was used for data analysis using Amos-26 software. The findings showed that thought excitement and analytical intelligence were significantly related to attention deficit symptoms. According to the findings, it can be concluded that some characteristics, such as the excitement of thought and analytical intelligence, can predict the signs of attention deficit (p<0.01). From the research findings, it can be concluded that in the diagnosis and treatment process of attention deficit, the variables of emotion, thought, and analytical intelligence is very important. Thus, the increase in attention deficit is associated with a decrease in the score of thought excitement and analytical intelligence.
