This study was aimed to investigate the effectiveness of behavioral intervention and support on externalized and internalized problems in students with hearing loss. This study was carried out using a semi-experimental method and a pre-test, post-test design with a control group. The statistical population of the research included students with hearing loss of Isfahan city, 30 of them were selected using the convenience method and randomly replaced in an experimental (15 people) and control (15 people) groups. Intervention was implemented for the experimental group during 10 sessions of 40 minutes, but no training was provided to the control group. In this study, the Achenbach & Rescorla Adolescent Self-Assessment Questionnaire was used. Data were analyzed using multivariate analysis of covariance. Findings showed that there was a significant difference between the behavioral problems of the experimental and control groups in the post-test phase. Behavioral intervention and support had a positive and significant effect on reducing externalized and internalized problems in participants. According to the results, it can be said that behavioral intervention and support leads to the improvement of behavioral problems, through controlling emotions and teaching adaptive behaviors of students.

The aim of this study is to determine the effect of training based on the flourishing psychological model on forgiveness in mothers of students with hearing loss. This research was conducted with a quasi-experimental method and a pre-test, post-test and follow-up design with a control group. The statistical population included 98 mothers of adolescents with hearing loss in Kashan in the 2021-2022 academic year, of which 28 were randomly selected and replaced in an experimental group (13 people) and a control group (15 people). Training sessions based on Seligman’s flourishing training package (2011) were held in 10 sessions of 90 minutes for the experimental group. Data were collected using a Heartland Forgiveness Scale (2005) and analyzed using mixed analysis of variance with repeated measures. The results showed that the intervention significantly increased forgiveness and subscales of self-forgiveness, others and position in post-test phase (P<0.01). The results of the Benferoni test showed that the increase in post-test scores was relatively stable in the follow-up phase. Based on the findings, a training program based on the flourishing psychological model was effective in improving the forgiveness in mothers of students with hearing loss. Therefore, this program can be used to promote forgiveness in mothers.

This study aimed to present a model of challenges in raising preschool children with hearing loss from the perspective of mothers and professionals based on the grounded theory.

The sample of this study was 15 mothers of children with hearing loss aged 4 to 6 years from the association of parents of children with hearing loss in Tehran and 5 professionals in the field of deaf and hard of hearing children who were selected in 2021 using purposive sampling method. The challenges of raising children with hearing loss were collected through in-depth semi-structured interviews to achieve theoretical saturation and analyzed by theoretical coding (open, axial and selective coding).

Based on the results of the research, open codes around 290 concepts, central codes including 51 concepts and selective codes in fourteen concepts including systemic and religious challenges, couple challenges, relationship challenges, various topics, unfavorable parent-child, thoughts and feelings. Experiences of blame, anxiety about the future, isolationism, emotional and behavioral problems, emotional response to the child, problems in communication skills and independence, child neglect, transformation and constructiveness, growing parenting skills were identified and discovered.

Parents face special challenges in raising their children with hearing loss, so it is important to pay special attention to the challenges ahead in raising a child with hearing loss.

The aim of this study is to design and validate an excellent parenting program to create peace and reduce challenge in families of children suffering from hearing loss. The research deals with basic knowledge in the field and its methodology is data collection and is of a quantitative nature. The first two steps were performed by content analysis method, the next three steps were performed using the Grounded Theory method and the next steps were performed by Delphi method. The statistical population included specialists in psychology and education of children suffering from hearing loss, teachers of preschool children with hearing loss and mothers of children suffering from hearing loss. The statistical sample included five specialists, five teachers and fifteen mothers. The program validation process was done in eight steps: reviewing the theoretical foundations of the program, reviewing the background and existing programs, determining the goals and content of the program, needs assessment and interview with the target group, designing program content, validating, reviewing and finalizing the program, and explaining program validation. The primary program was designed based on theoretical foundations and backgrounds. Then, the challenges of raising preschool children suffering from hearing loss were identified and 14 selective codes and 51 axial codes were obtained. Primary program and interview results were used to design an excellent parenting program, which was done in three rounds based on the Delphi approach. Then, the examiner triangulation, percentage agreement and Lawshe methods were used to determine validity, reliability and content validity index of the program, respectively. Therefore, an effective parenting program was designed in thirteen sessions. The reliability of the program was obtained by the percentage agreement method equal to 96% and its content validity index was equal to 0.97. According to the findings, an excellent parenting program has a high validity and reliability to create peace and reduce challenge in families of children suffering from hearing loss.

Adolescents with hearing loss are one of the most important groups of people with special needs that doing research about them is rare and sometimes have conflicting results. The purpose of this study was to analyze and explore the challenges of raising a child with hearing loss from the perspective of parents with normal hearing and the adolescents with hearing loss based on the Grounded theory. The sample was consisted of 10 adolescents with hearing loss and 15 hearing parents with hearing loss adolescents. They were selected by the theoretical and purposeful sampling method from the Tehran Deaf Family Association in 2021. The data was collected through the in-depth semi-structured interviews until theoretical sat-uration and were analyzed by theoretical coding (open, axial and selective coding). Based on the results, the open codes were around 103 concepts, the core codes were including 15 concepts, and the selected codes were including four concepts which they were identified and extracted under the headings of factors related to the parents, adolescents, family and society. According to the obtained results, it is very important to pay special attention to the leading challenges in raising a child with hearing loss.

typical migraine is defined as a unilateral pulsating headache frequently encountered in neurology practice. Hearing loss and balancedisturbances are some other prevalent symptoms among patients suffering from migraine headache. Moreover, migraine is known as one of the identified causes for sudden deafness. In this study, we evaluated the auditory physiological and electrophysioligical test findings in migrainers in an attempt to define related parameters. in this study, hearing thresholds, auditory brainstem responses and oto-acoustic emissions were evaluated in 40 migraine patients (aged 25 to 45 years old). Results were subsequently compared with those obtained from 20 normal subjects as controls. in high frequency audiometry (except for 8 KHz), hearing threshold mean was significantly different between migrainers and controls (p<0.0001).Brainstem evoked response audiometry showed that the mean of absolute latencies of both ears’ I, III, V waves was significantly different as compared to normal population (statistical error level %5, P<0.0001).Comparison between mean of amplitudes of OAEs did not show significant differences among left and right ears in migraine patient. In addition, migrainers and non migrainers did not show significant differences in OAEs amplitudes (statistical error level, %5, P<0.0001). elevation of hearing thresholds in high frequency audiometry and prolonged neural transmission time (delayed absolute latency) in auditory brainstem test indicate that migraine attacks might affect brainstem function.
