Method: Current study was conducted using a single subject experimental design. Diagnosis of ODD according to the SNAP-IV, Scale DSM5, Eisenbach. In order to assess aggression and impulsivity and difficulty in emotion regulation, Bass & Perry Aggression (1992) and Five Factors of impulsivity by Linham et al (2001) and Roemer and Graz (2004) ER were completed by participants at the beginning and during intervention sessions. Results: The magnitude of the effect of aggression on the Bass and Perry scale according to the Cohen index for the first to third participants was 0.56 0.41 and 0.47 respectively. The rate of recovery after the intervention was 45, 35 and 49% and the follow-up stage was 47,41and 50%. The magnitude of the effect of the five-factor scale, according to the Cohen index for three participants is equal to0,40, 0,53 and 0,52 respectively, and the rate of recovery after the intervention was 47, 52 and 47% .the follow-up stage was 47,51 and 50%.The magnitude of the effect of difficulty in regulating emotion, according to the Cohen index for three subjects is equal to 0,41, 0,38 and 0,37, respectively.The rate of recovery after the intervention was 35,44 and 37% and the follow-up stage was 37, 41 and 35%. Conclusion: Reduction in aggression and impulsivity dimensions. The results showed that WED of emotion can be useful in psychological interventions based on reducing aggression, impulsivity and difficulty in emotional regulation of adolescents with ODD..

Introduction: One of the behavioral disorders with extremely high prevalence is aggression. Children with aggressive behaviors expose the family, school and society to various problems that make them vulnerable against mental-social disturbances in their adolescence and even adulthood. The aim of this study was comparing self-efficacy in peer interaction and social competence of male students with aggressive and normal behaviors in 5 and 6th grades of elementary school in Ahvaz city (1393-94 academic year).Method: The sample included 250 male student (125 aggressive students and 125 normal students) that were selected through random multistage sampling method. The research design was causal-comparative. The instruments included: Children’s Self-efficacy for Peer Interaction Scale, Social Competence Scale, and Child Aggression in School Questionnaire. Data were analyzed using multivariate analysis of variance (MANOVA) method. Results: The results showed that there was a significant difference between the groups in self-efficacy in peer interaction and social competence. In addition, the level of self-efficacy in peer interaction and social competence of the aggressive group were lower than the normal group. Conclusion: According to the results of this study, deficit in self-efficacy in peer interaction and social competence can be considered as one of the significant factors in emerging aggressive behaviors.
