Abstract
the purpose of this study was to investigate the effectiveness of acceptance and commitment therapy on academic procrastination, self-disability and cognitive flexibility in students addicted to social networks. The current research was a semi-experimental study of pre-test-post-test type with a control group. The statistical population in this research was all secondary school students in the city of Arak in the academic year 1401-1402, of which 30 were selected by available sampling method (students with a score higher than the cut-off level of 50 in the Internet Addiction Questionnaire). mobile-based social networks) were selected as samples. The participants were divided into two experimental and control groups by random assignment, and the experimental group received 8 treatment sessions. As a pre-test and post-test, the participants answered the academic procrastination questionnaire of Solomon and Rothblom (1984), the self-handicapping questionnaire of Jones and Rodolt (1982) and the cognitive flexibility questionnaire of Dennis and Vanderwaal (2010). The results showed that treatment based on acceptance and commitment reduces academic procrastination, self-disability and improves cognitive flexibility in students addicted to social networks (p<0.01). Treatment based on acceptance and commitment can be one of the intervention programs of school counseling centers in order to reduce procrastination and other variables involved in the target groups.
