description The aim of this study was to determine the effectiveness of multidimensional intervention in three levels of executive functions training to Children with Attention Deficit /Hyperactivity Disorder, communication skills to peers, and behavior change strategies to parents on Working Memory. The research method was quasi-experimental with pre- post-test stages. The statistical population of the study was all 6- 9 years old boys with ADHD, in Kermanshah in the academic year of 2019. By cluster sampling method,30 ADHD students were selected, randomly, divided into two groups of 15 people. Also, their parents and peer students were in different training programs. Data were analyzed using analysis of covariance. The results showed that integrated multidisciplinary education improved working memory and retention but had no significant effect on their processing. It is suggested that in the treatment of children with ADHD, multifaceted methods be used.
