        The aim of this study was the role of impulse control, irritability and attachment style of mothers in predicting the symptoms of attention deficit / hyperactivity disorder in children. The present study was a descriptive correlational study. 120 mothers of elementary school students (65 girls and 55 boys) who were studying in Tehran in the academic year of 2019- 2020 and had symptoms of attention deficit-hyperactivity disorder were selected using the purposive sampling method. Data were collected using the Connerss Parent Questionnaire (1999), the Buss and Plomine Irritability Questionnaire (1984), the Lynham Impulse Control Scale (2006), and the Collins and Read Attachment Styles Questionnaire (1999). To analyzing data, was used Pearson correlation coefficient and multiple regression analysis. The results of regression analysis showed that the control of impulse, irritability and attachment style of mothers by explaining 58 percent of the variance of the total score of attention deficit-hyperactivity disorder symptoms can predict the criterion variable. These findings indicate that therapists and psychologists pay close attention to the psychological characteristics of mothers in the effectiveness of treatment for the symptoms of attention deficit hyperactivity disorder in children.

        <p>The present study was conducted with the aim of comparing the performance of cognitive profile functions in children with attention Deficit/hyperactivity disorder and special learning disorder. The statistical population of this descriptive and comparative causal research is all male students (ages 8-12 years old) who were studying in Tabriz city (1399-1400) and by using the purposeful sampling method, 30 students for Each group was selected. The research tools were cognitive flexibility (CFI), sensory processing (SPM), child and adolescent emotional regulation (ERQ-CA) and working memory questionnaires by Daneman and Carpenter. In order to analyze the data, descriptive indices and multivariate analysis of variance (MANOVA) were used. The results showed that there is a significant difference between the performance of the studied groups and their subscales (F=263.946, P&lt;0.001). Although children with hyperactivity showed a weaker performance in the general scales of cognitive flexibility, sensory processing and emotional regulation of re-evaluation, on the other hand, children with learning disorders also showed an obvious weakness in the general variable of working memory and They showed suppressed emotional regulation. These results have provided important implications in the field of effective therapeutic interventions and correct selection of training and rehabilitation programs to improve executive functions.</p> Manuscript profile
