After applying the training program containing (24) sessions to the control group and statistical processing of the data. The researcher found statistically significant differences (0.05 ≥α) in executive functioning (cognitive and emotional) in the group experimental, before and after executive training in favor of the post test on the one hand, and between the experimental group and the control group, in favor of the experimental group, on the other hand.
