Method: A sample of 30 people of the study population (the students with learning disability in the primary schools of the city of Tehran in academic year 2018-19) were selected through multi-stage clustered sampling method and were randomly replaced into experimental and control groups in order to do the study. The research design was experimental from pretest, posttest and control group type.

The data from the study were analyzed via Variances with repeated measurements. Results: The results showed that Executive functions training has significantly influenced neuropsychological skills and attention control of the students with learning disability (f= 123/82, f= 53/55, p<0/001). The degree of the effect of Executive functions training on neuropsychological skills and attention control of the students with learning disability was 81 and 66% respectively.
