The purpose of this study was to investigate the effectiveness of neuro linguistic programming strategies training on emotional intelligence, achievement motivation and academic self-concept. This study was experimental pre-test, post-test with the control group design. The statistical population of this study consisted of all female fifth grade elemantary school students in Izeh city in the academic year of 2020-2021. Then 30 people with learning disabilities were selected through random multi stage cluster sampling and were assigned randomly to experimental and control groups. The instruments used in this study were emotional intelligence (Petrides & Furnham, 2001) achievement motivation (Hermance, 1977) and academic self-concept (Liu & Wang, 2005). The experimental group received neuro linguistic programming strategies training for ten 60-minutes sessions, one sessions in a week lasting for two month. Analysis of the data was done using descriptive (average & standard deviation) and inferential (multiple covariance analysis) tests. Experimental group showed significant increase in achievement motivation and academic self-concept after being trained, But no significant effect was observed on emotional intelligence. Based on the result we can say that neuro linguistic programming strategies training is an important method in improving of achievement motivation and academic self-concept students with learning disability.

The present study aimed to compare the religious attitudes, self-efficacy and academic adjustment among undergraduated students based on sex, as well as the power of each variable in predicting academic achievement. The study population included all students of faculty of literature and humanity in Islamic Azad university, Izeh branch; during the academic year of 2015-16. This was correlational and comparative study. The research sample consisted of 274 students (130 male and 144 female), who were selected by stratified random sampling method. Religious Attitude Questionnaire (Golriz & Braheni, 1975), Self-efficacy Scale (Sherer & etal, 1982), Academic adjustment Questionnaire (baker & siryk, 1986) have been used for data collection. also student's average scores were used to measure academic achievement. The data was analyzed by ANOVA, Pearson correlation coefficient and stepwise multiple regression analysis. The result showed that there was significant difference between two groups of students in terms of academic self-efficacy and academic adjustment but there was no significant difference in their religious attitudes. The result of pearson correlation analysis indicated that there was no significant relationship between religious attitudes and academic achievement but there was significant relationship between self-efficacy, academic adjustment and academic achievement. stepwise regression analysis results also suggested that self efficacy and academic adjustment in female students and academic adjustment in male students are the most powerful predictors of academic achievement.
