The purpose of this study was the effectiveness of cognitive behavioral therapy intervention on the self-efficacy of students with special learning disorders (Dictation).

The statistical population included all students with special learning disorders (Dictation) in the Primary grade at Mental Empowerment Center in Tehran in the academic year 2020-2021. Among them, 30 male students with special learning disorders (Dictation) were selected based on entry and exit criteria and by available sampling and randomly placed into two groups experimental (15 people) and control (15 people).
