It is suggested that the coherence is a useful index in discrimination of ADHD subjects from normal subjects. However, a few studies are accomplished in subtypes of ADHD to identify of differences in functional connectivity between ADHD subtypes. In this comparative study, the connectivity index of coherence between two hemispheres is compared between two groups with ADHD-combined type (ADHD-C, N=13) and ADHD-predominantly inattentive type (ADHD-I, N=10). The results show that the coherence between left temporal lobe and right frontal lobe is significantly increased in ADHD-combined type as compared with ADHD- inattentive type. This higher coherence is occurred in the Theta (4-8 Hz) and Alpha (8-12 Hz) frequency Bands. Results would suggest that hyperactivity and impulsivity in ADHD-combined type could be related to left temporal and right frontal connectivity deficiencies.

This experimental study had been done by pre-test and post-test method, with control group. The sample population included students with ODD who visited Tehran service clinics in the first half of the year 2015. The selection of cluster sampling was used and subjects were randomly replaced in experimental and control groups. At first, Among Tehran psychological service clinics, two centers (Atieh and Talash) were randomly selected, then among the students 9 to 12 years who in diagnostic interview and CBCL were diagnosed with ODD, Thirty four students with their parent were recruited and assigned for experimental and control groups randomly. Data was collected by Social Interest Scale for Iranian Children (SISIC) and Basic Needs Satisfaction Scale. Children and their mothers in Experimental group separately took part in ten 2-hour weekly sessions of social interest. The control group received usual care. Covariance analysis revealed that training social interest program could increase social interest (p<.01) and psychological basic needs satisfaction (Autonomy (p<.01), competency (p<.01) and relation (p<.01)). Accordingly, The results show the social interest program could promote psychological basic needs satisfaction in students with Oppositional Defiant Disorder. Thus, we can use this program to help children with behavioral problems and their families.

The statistical population of the study is all researches conducted in Iran on the impact of distance education and its comparison with the traditional method on students' academic achievement. In accordance with the criteria of the present study، 51 studies from total of 138 studies were conducted by using statistical analysis CMA V2. By using Cohen's d the average of the effects of distance learning method and traditional method were 0.98 and 0.47, respectively and then by using T-test was compared the effect of these two methods.By accepting the assumption of inequality of variances, the results indicates that between the effect of distance education and the traditional and traditional method there is a significant difference with a significance level of 0.02 which is less than 0.05 (sig = 0.001> 0.05) .In other words, distance learning‌ students have more academic achievement than regular students.

The statistical population consisted of entire boys with ADHD ageing 7-12 years old in Qom. The statistical sample was 3 children with ADHD that have received a diagnosis of ADHD by psychiatrics. Also questionnaire of attention deficit / hyperactivity disorder based on Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders Forth edition-Three Revised (American Psychiatric Association, 2000); was used to study student’s ADHD disorder symptoms better. The Baseline and then assessment were confirmed by teachers in three consecutive days based on the completed self-control questionnaire (Kendall & Wilcox, 1979). Children of the sample group individually received 8 sessions (each session 60 minutes) of turtle technique training program. Data analysis in this research was done through visual analysis charts. Trend analysis and mean of data showed significant difference between A and B steps. The research hypothesis was confirmed and showed turtle technique was effective in response inhibition improvement in children with ADHD. Therefore this technique could be used in clinical situation for enhancing response inhibition in children with ADHD subsequently for improving social, communicational and self-control skills.
