Abstract
Aim and Background: Emotion regulation is a key factor in determination of health and successful performance in social interactions and its effect on exocrine dysfunction is of particular importance due to the flexible nature of adolescence and foundations of adult behavioral patterns. Therefore, the aim of this study was to determine the effectiveness of excitement process management strategies on the impulsivity of adolescent girls with oppositional defiant disorder (ODD). Methods and Materials: In the present study, 3 subjects were selected using purposive sampling method from among all 14-18 year old adolescents with ODD in schools of Najafabad (Isfahan, Iran). This study was implemented within the framework of a single-subject experimental design using stepwise multiple baseline design. After baseline, excitement process management strategies were presented to subjects based on Gross model during 8 individual intervention sessions. After one month, follow-up was conducted during 3 consecutive months. Using the Barratt Impulsiveness Scale (BIS), the subjects were assessed 11 times (4 times for baseline, 4 for intervention, and 3 for follow-up). The indexes of process changes, slope, and effect size, Cohen's coefficient, and interpretation of ups and downs were presented in SPSS software. Findings: The intervention reduced the subjects' impulsiveness scores. Review of the effect coefficient size and the effectiveness charts indicates the remarkable and significant effect of intervention intensity for all three subjects in all studied variables. Conclusions: The results showed that excitement process management strategies are effective on the impulsivity of adolescent girls with ODD. Therefore, it has satisfactory practical implications in the treatment and prevention of ODD.

Abstract
Aim and Background: Oppositional Defiant Disorder (ODD) is a gradual and chronic one always interacting with Cook’s interpersonal relationships and academic performance. Parenting is one of the effective methods for ODD, in which parents learn how to treat their children. The present study aimed to investigate the effectiveness of the Kazdin method for parenting on parent-child relationships among the students with ODD.
Methods and Materials: The study employed a quasi-experimental research with a pretest-posttest as well as 90-day follow-up and control group design. Of the students with ODD, based on the score above the cut-off point in the Achenbach Child Behavior Checklist (CBCL) and clinical interview by school’s consultant 30 students were selected and randomly divided into two experimental and control groups (each group contained 15 participants). The experimental group received the Kazdin method for parenting for twelve 90-minute sessions. The participants answered to Child-Parent Relationship Scale (CPRS) in three stages: pre-test, post-test and follow-up. The data were analyzed by repeated measures ANOVA.
Findings: The Kazdin method for parenting training significantly increased the parent-child relationships in the subscales of proximity, the general positive relationship, the reduction of conflict, and dependence in children with ODD (p<0.001).
Conclusions: The Kazdin method for parenting training has increased the parent-child relationships in children with ODD. According to the results of this study, the Kazdin method for parenting can be an effective way to improve parent-child relationships among students with ODD.

Abstract
Aim and Background: In recent years, simultaneously with the high incidence of psychological disorders, the worry about children’s mental health and its influence on their growth and functions has been increased. Children’s behavioral disorder plays an important role in this regard. Oppositional Defiant Disorder (ODD) is known as the third prevalent childhood disorder. Since the management of destructive outcomes of ODD disorder can be considered as both treatment and prevention, specialists have placed particular emphasis on the assessment, diagnosis, and early treatment of this psychological disorder. The goal of the present study was to investigate and identify the moderating factors of ODD in children.
Methods and Materials: Research data was collected and analyzed through qualitative approach and grounded theory. The study population included all the parents of ODD children (aging 6-12) of pre and primary schools of Isfahan in the year of 2019. In pursuit of this goal, 12 parents meeting the criteria to enter the research were chosen according to the targeted convenience sampling with two questionnaires of Child Symptom Inventory, parent-form (Gadow and Sprafkin, 1994) and General Health Questionnaire (Goldberg, 1972). Data analysis was conducted using Strauss & Corbin (1986).
Findings: The obtained findings were as follows: 73 primary codes through open coding, 5 subcategories through axial coding based on subject similarity, and finally 2 categories of parenting and non-parenting factors through selective coding.
Conclusions: A set of parenting and non-parenting factors plays a crucial role in moderating and managing children’s oppositional behaviors.
