About 70% of children with autism spectrum disorder have low or very low levels of IQ, and their balance is usually poor. The purpose of this study was to investigate the effect of superbrain yoga exercise on fluid intelligence, visual spatial perception, academic achievement Indexes and balance in children with Autism Spectrum Disorder.

This experimental study was conducted as a pretest-posttest with control group. The statistical population of the study included all students with Autism Spectrum Disorder at the elementary school of Besharat in Tehran. Among them, 20 boys were selected by purposive sampling and randomly assigned into two experimental (n=10) and control (n=10) groups. The experimental group performed 12 weeks of experimental Yoga exercises. The data collection tools were Wechsler Intelligence Scale for Children - Fifth Ed and Static Equilibrium Stack Test. Shapirowilk, Levene and independent t tests of gained scores were used for data analysis.

Superbrain yoga exercises did not have a significant effect on static equilibrium, fluid intelligence, Visual Spatial Perception and achievement of children.

According to the results of this study, it is recommended that other studies be conducted with better research design, the use of neural imaging techniques, and other components of academic achievement, In order to further investigate various aspects of the effectiveness of. Super Brain Yoga exercises on academic achievement.

The present study was conducted aiming to investigate the effectiveness of superbrain yoga exercise on fluid intelligence, visual spatial perception, academic achievement and balance in Slow Paced Children.

This quasi-experimental study was as a pretest-posttest with control group. The statistical population of this study was students with Intellectual Disabilities of Shahid Beheshti exceptional School in Tehran. The study participants were 20 boys with mean and standard deviation (76/0 ± 3/8) years were selected by convenience sampling and randomly assigned into two experimental (n=10) and control (n=10) groups. The experimental group performed 12 sessions of experimental Yoga exercises. The data collection tool was Wechsler Intelligence Scale for Children - Fifth Ed (Karami, 2017) and Modified Stroke Test (Sabzi, Damanpak & Tatari Hasan Gavyar; 2019). The data analysis were used from Shapirowilk, Levine and independent t tests of gained scores.

Based on the findings of this study, superbrain yoga exercises did not have a significant effect on fluid intelligence (P = 0.81), Visual Spatial Perception (P = 0.16) and static equilibrium (P = 0.19), but there was a significant effect on academic achievement of children (p =0.04).

The results of this study showed that it would be advisable to use Superbrain Yoga exercises in educational achievement for Slow Paced Children, along with other commonly used educational programs.

Down syndrome is one of the most common genetic diseases with mild to moderate intellectual disabilities. The purpose of this study was to investigate the effect of superbrain yoga exercise on fluid intelligence, visual spatial perception, academic achievement and balance in children with down syndrome. This quasi-experimental study was conducted as a pretest-posttest with control group. The statistical population of the study included all students with Down syndrome in Tehran. Participants were 20 educable Down syndrome boys in elementary exceptional school of Shahid Beheshti with mean age (8/2±0/89) which selected by convenience sampling and randomly assigned into two experimental (n=10) and control (n=10) groups. The experimental group performed 12 weeks of experimental Yoga exercises. The data collection tools were Wechsler Intelligence Scale for Children - Fifth Ed and Static Equilibrium Stack Test. Shapirowilk, Levene and independent t tests of gained scores were used for data analysis. Superbrain yoga exercises did not have a significant effect on fluid intelligence (t =1. 06, P=0/30), Visual Spatial Perception (t =1/29, P=0/21) and static equilibrium (t = /45, P=0/65), but there was a significant effect on academic achievement of children (t = 2. 46, P=0/02). The results of this study showed that it would be advisable to use Superbrain Yoga exercises in educational achievement for Children with Intellectual Disabilities, along with other commonly used educational programs.
