The experimental group was exposed to self-encouragement training for ten 120-minute sessions while the control group received no such training. The two groups, prior and after the educational intervention were appraised by the Cognitive Emotion Regulation Questionnaire (CERQ). Data collected were analyzed by the multivariate covariance analysis (MANCOVA). The findings acquired demonstrated that there was a significant difference between the experimental and control groups and this difference was seen in the privilege of the group trained.

Much effort has been made to explain theoretically the impact of anxiety on cognitive functions, one of these theories is attentional control theory. The purpose of this study was to compare the performance of working memory in two groups of normal and anxiety students according to the attentional control theory.

Method of research was causal-comparative. the statistical society was female student dormitory of azarbaijan shahid madani university in 2013- 2014 , which were selected using convenience sampling . 178 students first completed the State Trait Anxiety Inventory.

The results showed that there were significant differences between two groups of high anxiety and low anxiety(p

Based on these Results, we can conclude that anxiety has significant effects on students working memory performance.

Mentally retarded children respond less to conventional therapies than normal people. Therefore, art therapy allows these children to express their emotion by an intermediary instrument which causes increase of adaptability and self-esteem. 

 The aim of the present study was to evaluate the effectiveness of coloring art using step by-step drawings on self-esteem of educable retarded children.

The population consists of all educable mentally retarded children were studying at especial schools of Tehran city in academic year 2013. The multistage random sampling method was used to determine the research sample size. Finally, from 20 educable mentally retarded students, 10 students were classified into the experimental group and 10 students were included in the control group. The Cooper-Smith’s self-esteem scale (filled by the students’ parents and teachers) and step-by step coloring drawings were reared by the researcher were utilized in order to increase the educable mentally retarded students’ self-esteem. The Cooper-Smith scale concentrates on increase of self-esteem.
