Abstract

The purpose of this research is to investigate the effect of transcranial direct current stimulation (TDCS) on executive functions (selective attention and flexibility) of students with dyslexia. It was a quasiexperimental study with pre-test, post-test and a control group. The statistical population included all students of elementary school in Sirjan city who had dyslexia in school year of 2016-2017 from which twenty students, 6 boys and 14 girls, in the first and second grades, were selected through available sampling method. The students were randomly divided into two control and experimental groups. After sitting for the pre-test, the experimental group was exposed to TDCS for 10 sessions and each of which lasted for 20 minutes and then the post-test was given to both the control and the experimental groups. In order to collect the data, Stroup and Wisconsin tests were used. Data were analyzed by multivariate analysis of variance (MANCOVA) through SPSSv22. The results showed that there is a significant difference between the control group and the experimental group in selective attention and flexibility (P<0/001). It was concluded that TDCS has positive impact on selective attention and flexibility in children with dyslexia.
