      <study_design>Randomization: Randomized, Blinding: Not blinded, Placebo: Not used, Assignment: Parallel, Purpose: Education/Guidance, Randomization description: The statistical population of this study includes all fifth-grade female students with clinical symptoms of aggression. In this study, a multi-stage random cluster sampling method was used to initially select participants. Finally, students in these classes will be screened using the “Ahvaz Aggression Inventory.” Students whose questionnaire scores are higher than the clinical average are considered candidates for aggression. These individuals will then be interviewed by a clinical psychologist, and finally, students who are diagnosed with clinical symptoms of aggression will be selected as the final list of eligible participants for the study. After collecting the initial group of eligible students, the process of random assignment to the study groups (intervention group and control group) will begin. Block randomization and stratified randomization methods will be used to assign participants to the intervention and control groups. The tool used to generate block and stratified random sequences will be the statistical software R (R version 4.3.1).</study_design>

      <i_freetext>Intervention 1: Intervention group:After forming the groups, the subjects were led to special rooms and were given questionnaires to measure the variables as a pre-test and were assured that the answers they gave would remain confidential, and they were asked to answer the questions confidently and honestly. 2. People in the experimental group received training sessions based on the Spivak and Shore method (quoted in Cassidy and Long, 1996) in 6 2-hour sessions. 3. After completing the treatment period, each experimental group was re-measured with questionnaires to measure the variables as a post-test and finally, after one month of the post-test, they were re-measured (follow-up phase). Intervention 2: This research is a pre-test-post-test design with a control group and a follow-up phase. In this design, the subjects are measured before the implementation of the independent variable (pre-test), then the experimental intervention or independent variables are applied. After that, the subjects are measured again. Finally, after one month of the post-test, both groups are measured again to examine the continuity of the effect of the interventions on the experimental groups. After the formation of the groups, the subjects were led to special rooms and given questionnaires to measure the variables as a pre-test and were assured that the answers they gave would remain confidential, and they were asked to answer the questions confidently and honestly. Also, no intervention was carried out for the control group. However, to prevent threats to the internal validity of the test, the intervention was carried out for them after the end of the research. After completing the treatment period, each control group was re-assessed with questionnaires that were used to measure the variables as a post-test, and finally, one month after the post-test was administered (follow-up phase).</i_freetext>

    <primary_outcome>
      <prim_outcome>Aggression: It includes behavior that is done with the intention and direction of harming oneself or others and can have various manifestations, ranging from verbal abuse that causes psychological harm to physical violence and involves a complete disregard for one's own health or that of others. In this study, aggression is the score that respondents obtain in response to the Ahvaz Aggression Inventory (Zahedifar et al., 1379). Timepoint: The present study, due to the multi-stage random selection of participants, is a field experimental study and the research design is a pre-test-post-test design with a control group and a follow-up phase. In this design, the subjects are measured before the implementation of the independent variable (pre-test), then the experimental intervention or independent variables are applied. After that, the subjects are measured again. Finally, after one month of the post-test, both groups are measured again to examine the continuity of the effect of the interventions on the experimental groups.Problem-solving skills training sessions were developed based on the Spivak and Shore method (cited by Cassidy and Long, 1996) and are implemented in 6 2-hour sessions. Method of measurement: The research tool will include: Ahvaz Aggression Inventory by Zahedifar et al. (1990). Also, the research data analysis was done using SPSS version 27 computer software. The significance level in this study is considered to be 0.05.</prim_outcome>
      <prim_outcome>Functional flexibility: Resilience or functional flexibility has been defined as a process, ability, or outcome of successful adaptation to threatening conditions. In the present study, functional flexibility refers to the score that patients obtain from the 25-item Connor and Davidson (2003) Resilience Questionnaire, standardized by Mohammadi (2005). Timepoint: The present study, due to the multi-stage random selection of participants, is a field experimental study and the research design is a pre-test-post-test design with a control group and a follow-up phase. In this design, the subjects are measured before the implementation of the independent variable (pre-test), then the experimental intervention or independent variables are applied. After that, the subjects are measured again. Finally, after one month of the post-test, both groups are measured again to examine the continuity of the effect of the interventions on the experimental groups.Problem-solving skills training sessions were developed based on the Spivak and Shore method (cited by Cassidy and Long, 1996) and are implemented in 6 2-hour sessions. Method of measurement: The research tool will include: Functional Flexibility Questionnaire: Connor and Davidson (2003). Also, the research data analysis was done using SPSS version 27 computer software. And the significance level in this research is considered to be 0.05.</prim_outcome>
      <prim_outcome>Rumination: It is defined as a constant preoccupation with an idea or topic and thinking about it. Rumination is a class of conscious thoughts that revolve around a specific and habitual axis and are repetitive, without immediate environmental demands being dependent on them, and focus on the causes and consequences of symptoms, preventing maladaptive problem solving and leading to an increase in negative thoughts. In this study, rumination is the score that subjects obtain from the Nolen-Hoeksma and Maro questionnaire (1991), translated by Bagherinejad et al. (2010). Timepoint: The present study, due to the multi-stage random selection of participants, is a field experimental study and the research design is a pre-test-post-test design with a control group and a follow-up phase. In this design, the subjects are measured before the implementation of the independent variable (pre-test), then the experimental intervention or independent variables are applied. After that, the subjects are measured again. Finally, after one month of the post-test, both groups are measured again to examine the continuity of the effect of the interventions on the experimental groups.Problem-solving skills training sessions were developed based on the Spivak and Shore method (cited by Cassidy and Long, 1996) and are implemented in 6 2-hour sessions. Method of measurement: The research tool will include: Rumination Questionnaire: Nolen-Hoeksma and Maru (1991). Also, the research data analysis was done using SPSS version 27 computer software. And the significance level in this research is considered to be 0.05.</prim_outcome>
