    Background: This research discusses the diagnostic validity of the Wechsler Intelligence Scale for Children, fifth edition (WISC-V), in students with attention deficit-hyperactivity disorder (ADHD). The primary research question is whether the WISC-V possesses diagnostic validity for students with ADHD. Methods: The study employs a psychometric design. The research population includes all students with ADHD enrolled in the first, second, and third grades of elementary school during the 2022 academic year. These students receive educational therapeutic services in private and public centers. A sample size of 250 students was selected using a purposeful sampling method. The instrument used is the WISC-V. Additionally, 250 individuals from the normative population (non-ADHD) were included as a comparison group. The confidence interval method was applied to determine the diagnostic validity of the tests. Results: Data analysis indicated that among the WISC-V subscales, only the "processing speed" subscale demonstrated diagnostic validity (P < 0.001). The other four subscales — "visual-spatial", "fluid reasoning", "working memory", and "verbal comprehension" — did not exhibit adequate validity in distinguishing between students with and without ADHD. Conclusions: The findings indicate that the WISC-V has favorable diagnostic validity for the processing speed scale in students with ADHD. This scale can be effectively utilized for the clinical assessment of students with ADHD within the field of exceptional individuals.

    هدف از پژوهش حاضر، اثربخشی آموزش برنامه حضوری- مجازی درمان والد- کودک بر اساس رویکرد آیبرگ بر رابطه مادر و کودک مبتلا به اختلالات رفتاری مراکز پیش‌دبستانی در شهر تهران بود. جامعه آماری مطالعه حاضر ،کلیه مادران کودکان شاغل به تحصیل در مراکز پیش‌دبستانی منطقه پنج آموزش‌و‌پرورش شهر تهران بودند. این پژوهش یک مطالعه نیمه‌آزمایشی با طرح پیش­آزمون- پس­آزمون با 30 مادر کودکان با اختلالات رفتاری پیش‌دبستانی (15 مادر گروه آزمایشی و 15 مادر گروه گواه)، بود که با روش نمونه­گیری در دسترس انتخاب شده بودند. شرکت‌کنندگان به‌صورت تصادفی به دو گروه 15 نفری تقسیم شدند (یک گروه آزمایش و یک گروه گواه). گروه آزمایش، برنامه حضوری مجازی تعامل والد- کودک را در 14 جلسه دریافت کردند؛ در حالی که به گروه گواه این آموزش ارائه نشد. ابزارهای استفاده شده در این پژوهش، مقیاس رابطه والد- کودک پیانتا (CPRS) و سیاهه رفتاری کودکان (CBCL) آخن باخ و رسکولار بود. برای تجزیه‌و‌تحلیل از آزمون t مستقل و تحلیل کوواریانس استفاده شد. یافته‌ها نشان داد که برنامه حضوری- مجازی درمان تعامل والد- کودک بر اساس رویکرد آیبرگ به‌طور معناداری در مؤلفه‌های وابستگی، تعارض، نزدیکی و رابطه بین والد و کودک مؤثر بوده است. الگوی کلی نتایج حاکی از آن است که این برنامه بر رابطه مادر و کودک اثربخش بوده است؛ بنابراین می‌توان از آن به‌عنوان یک الگوی درمانی در مراکز پیش‌دبستانی استفاده شود.
