Abstract:

This research was conducted to determine the effectiveness of a social cognition training program on moral metacognition and empathy level among students. The current research was a quasi-experimental study with a pretest-posttest follow-up design and a control group. The statistical population included all male students in junior high schools of Khoy, Iran, in the academic year 2020-2021. Thirty students were selected by random cluster sampling and were then randomly assigned to experimental and control groups. The participants received training in a social cognition program over ten sessions, each lasting 60 minutes. Data collection tools included the Moral Metacognition Scale and the Basic Empathy Scale. The collected data were analyzed using repeated-measures ANOVA in SPSS version 26. The results showed that social cognition training led to an increase in the moral metacognition and empathy scores among the students in the experimental group compared to the controls.
