Thus, among 85 mothers that were selected using purposeful sampling method and were willing to cooperate in the study and participate the classes, 50 children who got the score higher than the cut-off point in Relational and clear Aggression Questionnaire by Shahim and were diagnosed of having aggression syndrome, were selected and assigned into experimental (25 individuals) and control (25 individuals) groups. Child-parent group therapy based on Landerth and Braton model was implemented for ten 45-minute sessions as an independent variable.
