Abstract
Home quarantine to manage COVID-19 has increased conflict between mothers and children. This study aimed to research the role of coronavirus anxiety factors and maternal childhood trauma in this conflict due to premenstrual stress. Thus, mothers and their children aged 7 to 12 years in Tehran participated in the study in December 2020. They completed the Premenstrual Rating Scale, the Childhood Trauma Questionnaire (CTQ), the Drawing Family Test, and the Coronavirus Anxiety Scale. The results showed that children often portrayed their conflict with the mother in drawing activities as separation from the mother. Emotional and physical abuse of the mother during childhood caused her child to draw significantly more distant from her mother. Another finding of the study showed that childhood emotional and physical abuse could predict premenstrual stress. On the other hand, the psychological dimension of coronavirus anxiety has also created premenstrual tensions. Premenstrual tensions have also been able to cause mother-child conflict. Interestingly, it was only premenstrual stress that was related to the child's position in the drawing space based on koppitz emotional indicators. Premenstrual tension syndrome seems to directly target the child's self-concept and move him away from being the centre of attention.

Abstract
The aim of this study was to compare the effectiveness of Floortime method and Fernald multisensory method on impulsivity, mobility and concentration of hyperactive children aged 7 to 9 years. The research method was quasi-experimental with a pre-test post-test design. The statistical population consists of all hyperactive children aged 7 to 9 years in Salmas city in 1402. Using purposive sampling, 36 children were randomly divided into three groups (two experimental groups and a control group). The research measurement tool is the Conners Parental Hyperactivity Questionnaire. The data obtained from the two stages of pre-test and post-test were analyzed using the statistical method of analysis of covariance and Bonferroni post hoc test to compare the effect of the two treatments.
