Background and Purpose: Deprivation from a parent is one of the special family circumstances that can have a direct and indirect impact on the development and various dimensions of the child's behavior, especially in the field of mental health, physical activity, and academic performance. The purpose of the present study was to investigate the effect of child-centered play therapy on the self-control and impulsive behavior of single-parent children.
Method: In this research, a single-subject experimental design was used. The statistical population of this study was the children of a 6-8-year-old boy from the Iranian House of Molavi, who was a member of the popular population of Imam Ali center in Tehran in 1395. The sample consisted of 3 single-parent boys were selected through convenient sampling method. The Kendall and Wilcox self-control questionnaire (1979) was used to collect data. The intervention training was conducted in 12 sessions of 45 minutes with intervals of 1 week between sessions. The data analysis method was analytic, and the rate of recovery was used to obtain the effectiveness of play therapy.
Results: The results of data analysis showed that although child-focused therapy had an effective effect on self- control and impulsive behavior of single-parent children, its effect was not clinically meaningful.
Conclusion: Play therapy is a dynamic interpersonal relationship between the child and the therapist, helping the child increase his self- control skills by creating a secure communication space in the play room.
