The present study aimed to determine the effectiveness of the educational package based on lateral dominance on the components of inhibition, attention transfer, and emotional control in 7-12-year-old children with learning disabilities.

The method of the present study was experimental with a pretest-posttest design with a control group. From elementary school children from 7 to 12 years old who were diagnosed with Specific learning disabilities in psychology clinics in Tehran in 2020, 30 people were randomly selected and then randomly replaced into two groups of 15 experimental and control. The Edinburgh inventory, Delacato Neurodevelopmental Scale, and Brief’s Behavioral Rating Scale of Executive Functions were used to collect data.

The analysis of covariance showed that the training package affected executive functions (p <0.01 and F = 8.47) in children with Specific learning disabilities in the experimental group.

The results of this research showed that in children with learning disabilities, lack of lateral dominance is more common than in their peers. Also, these children have weaker performance in the components of executive functions than others. Therefore, according to the results of this research, it can be said that rehabilitation interventions and pieces of training that are carried out to create lateral dominance lead to better performance in functions and improvement of academic skills in children with learning disabilities. Therefore, it is suggested that these exercises and educational interventions be used as supplementary programs in line with other educational programs in all elementary grades.

Emotional-behavioral problems among children and adolescents are considered as a potential risk factor to their psychological well-being and often lead to unfavorable and continuous consequences. The aim of this research was to investigate the themes, structure, interactions and context of the life narratives of mothers of children with emotional-behavioral problems.

The method of this research was qualitative with a pluralistic narrative analysis approach. The participants included 19 mothers of 7 8-year-old children with emotional-behavioral problems in the cities of Borujerd and Khorram Abad in 1400. To identify children with emotionalbehavioral problems was used the parent form of the Achenbach questionnaire (2001) and then a semi-structured interview was conducted with their mothers. Open, axial and selective coding was used for data analysis.

The themes identified in this research were: ineffective parenting style, socio-economic problems, communication problem with the father, family disputes, mother's stress during pregnancy, lack of interest in learning, attention deficit, difficulty in expressing emotions, anxiety sensitivity, disobedience and stubbornness, violation of school rules, lying, misbehavior, aggression and bullying, and communication problems with friends and teachers were among children with emotional-behavioral problems. The structural analysis of the narratives showed that the role of personal factors in mothers' life narratives (dissatisfaction, anger, depression) and social factors (inappropriate communication with the child) in creating emotional-behavioral problems. The interactive/performative model indicated the insufficient presence of the father at home, inappropriate father-child relationship, and family disputes, and the contextual model indicated the low level of parental education, divorce, lack of sufficient facilities, and environmental factors.

Parents' communication problems, ineffective parenting style, parents' psychological problems, socio-economic status, play an important role as risk factors in the occurrence of emotional and behavioral problems in 7-8 year old children
