In this regard, successful intelligence theory has a variety of educational implications. Past researches has shown the effectiveness of training the components of successful intelligence in various variables, but in relation to the effectiveness of successful intelligence components training on increasing cognitive abilities, there is a research gap. Aims: The aim of this study was to investigate the effectiveness of successful intelligence components training on increasing fluid reasoning and verbal comprehension of seventh grade students. Methods: The present study is applied and semi-experimental in terms of outline research. The statistical population consisted of all seventh grade students in Holeilan city in the academic year of 2019-20. The study sample included 30 students who were selected by available sampling and, then, were assigned into two experiment and control groups (each group of 15) through random assignment method. After the pre-test, students of experimental group received 30 training sessions of the components of successful intelligence (researcher-made) and then, post-test data were collected. The Wechsler scale for children (WISC-5, 2014) was used to collect data. Descriptive (frequency, mean and standard deviation) and inferential (multivariate analysis of covariance) testes were used to analyze the data using SPSS software version 24. Results: There was a significant difference between the experimental and control groups in terms of fluid reasoning and verbal comprehension (p< 0/01). Conclusion: Training in the components of successful intelligence can increase the scores of fluid reasoning and verbal comprehension. Thus, successful intelligence components training program can be used as an effective training method to increase fluid reasoning and verbal comprehension CP - IRAN IN - F.DORTAJ2015@GMAIL.COM LG - eng PB - Journal-of-Psychological-Science PG - 1251 PT - Research YR - 2021
