Abstract

The aim of this study was to investigate the effectiveness of cognitive-motor rehabilitation program on reducing dictation errors in students with dysgraphia. Methods: The present study employed a quasi-experimental with a pre-test, post-test, and follow-up phases with an experimental and control group. The statistical population of the study included of third-grade male students referred to the Isfahan Learning Disorders Center in 1403-1404, that from population, 30 students were selected using a convenience sampling method and randomly assigned to experimental and control groups. The experimental group received a cognitive- motor rehabilitation program for 15 sessions, each lasting 45 minute, while the control group students received the usual training provided by the Learning Disorders Center. At the end of the intervention, a follow-up was conducted after two months. The Wechsler Intelligence Scale, Fifth Edition (2014), the Connors Test (Parent Form) (1999), and the researcher-made dictation test were used to all students. Data were analyzed using repeated-measures analysis of variance in SPSS 26.
Results: The results of repeated-measures analysis of variance showed that the cognitive-motor rehabilitation program was effective and significant in improving visual memory, auditory sensitivity, dysgraphia, and accuracy of dysgraphia students (P< 0.05), and there was no significant difference in visual sequence and writing errors (P> 0.05)
