Methods:The research method is practical in terms of purpose, and it was a semi-experimental design of pre-test-post-test type with a control group. For this purpose, 9 and 10-year-old dyslexic students of Razan city in the academic year of 2022-2023 were selected as a statistical population, which was selected through screening with a dyslexia checklist and intelligence test, 45 people were selected in a purposeful way and randomly in three The experimental group of 15 people and the control group of 15 were replaced. The experimental group was trained for 10 sessions of one and a half hours, and during this time, the control group did not receive any training. The tools used in this research were Selimi Timuri's reading disorder test (2006), Raven's IQ test (2010), Zandkarimi's self-discipline questionnaire (2010) and Zandkarimi's self-assessment questionnaire (2010). Findings:Analysis of covariance test was used to analyze the data. The results of the research in data analysis showed that multiple sensory methods had a significant effect on self-discipline and self-assessment. Also, cognitive-behavioral intervention has had a significant effect on discipline and self-assessment.
