چکیده

مقدمه: با تمایل رو به رشدی که در سال­های اخیر نسبت به استفاده از موسیقی و فعالیت­های مرتبط با آن در حوزه های درمانی مشاهده می­شود، مقاله حاضر با هدف اثربخشی موسیقی­درمانی بر توجه و تمرکز، سازگاری اجتماعی و پرخاشگری دانش­آموزان کم­توان ذهنی انجام شد.
روش پژوهش: این پژوهش از نوع نیمه­آزمایشی با طرح پیش­آزمون-پس­آزمون با گروه کنترل است. جامعه آماری، کلیه دانش­آموزان پسر دوره دوم ابتدایی کم­توان ذهنی مدارس استثنائی شهر تبریز در سال تحصیلی400-1399 بودند که با استفاده از روش نمونه­گیری در دسترس30 نفر دانش­آموز کم­توان ذهنی انتخاب شدند و  به صورت دو گروه آزمایش(15 نفر) وکنترل(15 نفر) گمارده شدند. جهت سنجش توجه و تمرکز از حافظه فعال در مقیاس هوش وکسلر- نسخه چهارم، جهت سنجش سازگاری اجتماعی از پرسشنامه سینها و سینگ و جهت سنجش پرخاشگری از پرسشنامه شهیم استفاده شد. روایی ابزارها توسط متخصصان تایید شد و پایایی ابزار سازگاری اجتماعی با کودر-ریچاردسون و پایایی سایر ابزار با آلفای کرون­باخ سنجش و مورد تایید واقع شدند(7/0<α). قبل از اجرای مداخله از هر دو گروه پیش­آزمون توجه و تمرکز، سازگاری اجتماعی و پرخاشگری به عمل آمد. گروه آزمایش آموزش موسیقی­درمانی را از طریق پکیج آموزشی در 12 جلسه دریافت کرد و گروه کنترل هیچگونه مداخله آموزشی دریافت نکرد. پس از اجرای مداخله در مرحله پس­آزمون، هر دو گروه مجددا ابزارهای مرحله پیش­آزمون را پاسخ دادند. داده­ها با استفاده از آزمون کواریانس تک­متغیره و کواریانس چندمتغیری تجزیه و تحلیل شدند.
یافته ها: نتایج نشان داد آموزش موسیقی­درمانی در افزایش توجه و تمرکز و افزایش سازگاری اجتماعی و دو خرده­مقیاس آن و همچنین درکاهش پرخاشگری و دو خرده­مقیاس آن اثربخش بوده است (05/0> p).
نتیجه گیری: با توجه به اثربخشی موسیقی­درمانی در پژوهش حاضر؛ پیشنهاد می­شود؛ در مدارس استثنایی از روشهای آموزشیِ موسیقی­درمانی در قالب واحد مصوب درسی با هدفِ افزایش توجه و تمرکز و سازگاری اجتماعی و کاهش پرخاشگری دانش­آموزان کم­توان ذهنی بهره گرفته شود
