Introduction: The purpose of present research is the investigation the effectiveness of Working memory training on attention functions of students with dyslexia learning disabilities. Method: The methodology is experimental, with pre-test and post-test with control group and the statistical community involves, male and female students with learning disabilities in second to fifth elementary grade with dyslexia learning disability at schools in the Central Province between 92 to 93 were enrolled,with 32 students were selected by cluster random sampling.and randomly assigned to experimental and control groups, tools used in this research were Demographic questionnair, working memory training software, software Stroop Test, the Wechsler Intelligence Scale for children four, Reading and Dyslexia Testthe research data were analyzed with, multivariate analysis of covariance (MANCOVA). Results: The results showed, after performing working memory training software in the test group,between experimental and control groups, given the scale of function in the Stroop test, improved significantly. Conclusion: The results showed that working memory training, is used to improve attentional functions of students dyslexia learning disabilities and it can be used as an effective method.

Method: The study was casual comparative and the population consisted of 9 to 12 years old children with normal or irresponsible parents studyng in Isfahan in the academic year 92-93.The sampling method was Multi-stage random cluster of six districts of the city in boys school. The instrument included Hop theory of mind questionnaire (1994) and data were analyzed using multivariate analysis of variance. Results:The results showed that the two groups of children had significant differences both in the general and component level (level I, II, and III) of the theory of mind (P

The current study aimed to understand the effect of bilingual social context on children's episodic memory. In bilingual group Total 27 children participated at 24, 30 and 36 months of age. In this approach the convenience sampling method adopted, and monolingual group matched with them. The memory skills based upon elicited Imitation with action memory test, assessed in base line, immediate and delayed performance. The data synthesized using by variance analysis and tukey test. The data analysis revealed no significant differences between bilinguals and monolinguals. But in a broader extent the different genders show significant differences (i. e. girls gained higher scores). The base line, immediate and delayed performance resulted to significant difference. The immediate and delayed performance assessed to be better than base line performance. In this study children’s language skills were associated with performance immediately after modeling for both the actions and pairs measures of memory in the elicited imitation task. Accordingly, the current findings suggest that at least by 2 years of age, the language available to children is an important determinant of what gets into memory.
