Abstract

The present study was conducted to investigate efficacy of positivist parenting method training on disruptive, destructive, and self-control behaviors among female students in fifth-grade primary school. It was quasi-experimental study with control group design, pretest, posttest, and control group. Additionally, a two-month follow-up period was implemented. The statistical population of the research consisted of fifth-grade primary school female students with disruptive and destructive behavior and their parents in Tehran during the academic year 2021-22. Twenty-seven students exhibiting disruptive and detrimental behavior were randomly assigned to the experimental and control groups,with 14 students in the experimental group and 13 in the control group, using the purposive sampling method. Over the course of two and a half months, the experimental group was subjected to ten ninety-minute sessions of positivist parenting method training. The applied questionnaires in this study included children’s disruptive behaviors (Pelham et.al., 1992) and Children's Self-Control Questionnaire (Kendal & Wilcox, 1979). The SPSS23 software was used to analyze the data from the study using mixed ANOVA. The results showed that the training in the positivist parenting method has a substantial impact on the self-control and disruptive and destructive behavior of female pupils in the fifth grade of primary school (p<0.001). It is possible to conclude that positivist parenting method training can be implemented as an appropriate approach to reduce disruptive and destructive behavior and enhance self-control in female students by implementing conventional parenting techniques and appropriate communication principles, as the results of the study indicate.
