The participants were and randomly assigned to experimental and control groups according to motor performance that was performed by Oseretsky Lincoln motor development test. The experimental group participated in a training program for 20 sessions of 45 minute and the control group performed their daily activities. Data collection was carried out for all participants in the form of pre-test, post-test and follow-up. In order to compare the two groups, the statistical model of multivariate analysis of covariance was used. The results showed a significant difference in the experimental group compared with the control group in terms of motor skills (P<0/001). Thus, it can be said that the training program of mobility and orientation can be useful to improve the motor skills of children with visual impairment.The purpose of the present study was to investigate the effectiveness of mobility and orientation training on the motor skills of children with visual impairment. 30 male students with visual impairment (15 subjects in control group and 15 subjects in experimental group) with age ranging from 7 to 11 years from Shahid Mohebbi School in Tehran were selected.

This was a correlational study, and the target population consisted of all male guidance school students in Kashan city , from which a representative sample of 200 students were selected through cluster random sampling technique. Research tools consisted of the Yung's Early Maladaptive Schema questionnaire, the khalili and khorshidi parenting style questionnaire and math scores in the final exams. After data collection, the data were analyzed using correlation and multiple regression analysis. The Results showed that there were significant negative relationships between success in mathematics and some of the variables of parenting style including Authoritarian, Permissive and irresponsible, while a significant positive relationship between success in mathematics and decisive parenting style has been found. Furthermore, negative significant relationships between success in mathematics and several early maladaptive schemas including disconnection, rejection, over vigilance and inhibition has been observed. The multiple regression analysis showed that, of the early maladaptive schemas, disconnection, rejection, over vigilance and inhibition, and of the parenting styles authoritarian, permissive and authoritative were powerful predictors of success in mathematics.The purpose of the present study was to predict student's success in mathematics based on the parenting styles and early maladaptive schemas.

The type of study was quasi-experimental with pre and post- test utilizing control group and follow-up. Using available sampling, tenth and eleventh grade students with visual impairment in Mohebi School, in Tehran were randomly assigned to experimental and control groups (twenty students each included boarding and daily attending individuals). All students responded to Bell Adjustment Questionnaire (BAI, Bell, 1961) and Mental Health Inventory (MHI-28, Besharat, 2009), then, the experimental group received ten sessions of the intervention while the control group did not receive training. The results of the multivariate analysis of covariance showed that adjustment and mental health of the experimental group significantly increased after the intervention program. Therefore, it can be concluded that this program could help with the adjustment and mental health of adolescents with visual impairment.Visual deprivation as one of the primary senses may cause limitations in the personal aspects and interpersonal interactions of the individual.
