| description | Background: Learning new words, visual memory, and selective attention are among the factors that influence the academic achievement of elementary students. But the key question is: does white noise affect students' learning new words, visual memory, and selective attention? Aims: To investigate the effect of white noise on learning new words, active visual cue and selective attention in elementary school students. Method: The study was experimental with pre-test and post-test with control group. The statistical population was all the elementary students of second year of Bavi city of Khuzestan province in the academic year of 1397-98. Group 50 (n = 50) were randomly assigned. Research tools include the New Words Researcher Test, Jean-Louis Celie's Visual Active Memory Test (2012), and Selective Attention Testing, Concentration and Attempt d2 (Bagheri, 2012). Data were analyzed using multivariate covariance method. Results: White noise had a significant effect on learning new words in elementary students (P<0/000). There was no significant effect on visual memory (P>0/05) and selective attention (P>0/470). Conclusions: White noise can be used to enhance the learning of new words in elementary school students. |
