All participants were asked to complete the intrapersonal intelligence Scale and attended to specific school exams. The experimental group underwent the group therapy for 14 sessions, but the control group received no treatment. All the participants took the instruments again as post-tests. Data were analyzed using Two Way ANCOVA and TWO WAY MANCOVA analysis.
