Abstract

The aim of this study was to compare the theory of mind, cognitive self-awareness and self-regulation among the students with and without learning disabilities. In this  study, the  causal – comparative method was used. The statistical population of the study consisted of 3rd to 6th grade elementary students with and without  learning disorders  in the second region   of Rasht City in the academic year 1394-1395. 184 students were selected as a sample by using multistage cluster sampling method. The students completed Wales's questionnaire of self-awareness, Pintrich 's questionnaire of self-regulation ,and Stumpman's questionnaire of theory of mind. By using Alpha Cranbach , Their reliability were reported 84%, 81% and 80% respectively. The results of analysis of multivariate variance (MANOVA) showed that there is a significant difference between students with and without learning disorders in the theory of mind, cognitive self-awareness ,and self-regulation. So, the theory of mind, cognitive self-awareness and self-regulation in students with learning disabilities were less than that of students without learning disabilities.
