The population of the study included all the children with Down syndrome who were under the protection of Kermanshah Welfare Organization in 2018.

To collect the research data, Social skills Questionnaires (Matson, 1983), Children's Anxiety Questionnaire (Spence, 1999), and Aggression Questionnaire (Bass & Perry's Aggression, 1992) were used. The data were analyzed using covariance analysis and SPSS-21. Results: The results showed that there is a significant difference between the experimental and control groups in the Social skills scores and in each of the components including: proper Social skills, inappropriate courage, impulsivity / rebellion, high self-confidence, and jealousy / 05/0> P).
