Abstract

Introduction: People with math learning disabilities have severe cognitive impairments that brain-centered empowerment can reduce. The present study is conducted to determine the effectiveness of brain-centered empowerment on executive functions in students with such learning disabilities. Materials and Methods: The present research project was quasi-experimental with two subjects. The statistical population was all students with learning disabilities in Tabriz in 2019. The training and control group each included 20 people with math learning disabilities. The sampling method was targeted. The research tools included a computer-based brain empowerment program, a continuous performance test, and a Problem-solving test. First, Attention and Problem-solving tests were taken from all subjects as a pre-test. Then, 20 sessions of brain-centered empowerment intervention were performed for the experimental group, while no intervention was performed for the control group. These tests were carried out again as a post-test on the experimental and control groups. Data analysis was performed using multivariate analysis of covariance. Results: Data analysis showed a significant difference between the mean of pre-test and post-test scores of the experimental and control groups (p<0. 001). The F-test score for Attention-deficit error, Attention-response error, and problem solution was 5. 72, 5. 14, and 11. 78, respectively; thus, brain-empowerment improved Attention and Problem-solving in people with math learning disabilities. Conclusion: Given the positive effects of this method on the Attention and problem solving of people with Mathematical learning disabilities, this study showed that brain-centered empowerment could be an effective strategy to achieve optimal performance of executive functions in people with such disabilities.
