Abstract EN

This study aimed to investigate the level of attention deficiency-hyperactivity & social adjustment among students with learning disabilities in the cycle one schools in South Batinah region as well as to verify the possibility of predicting social adjustment by knowing the level of attention deficiency & hyperactivity among these students.

The sample of the study consisted of 200 students in grades 2, 3 & 4 who were listed to have learning disabilities.

|A scale for social adjustment was used that included 30 tasks in addition to Corner’s scale of teachers’ assessment that included 28 tasks.

To analyze the responses of the sample members and to treat them statistically, the exploratory factor analysis was used to verify the validity of the Conners' Rating Scales.

Internal consistency was calculated, as was the Pearson correlation coefficient to verify the validity and consistency of the two measures.

A single group test was used to determine the level of attention deficiency, hyperactivity, and social adjustment in the study sample.The main results showed that: the subjects had a lower than average level of attention deficit, a lower than average level of hyperactivity, and an average level of social adjustment.

The results also showed that the variables of hyperactivity and poor attention predict negatively with statistically significant correlation with social adjustment.
