Abstract:
The research aimed to 1) compare the inhibitory control of high school students who were received a social learning theory combined with origami training program during the pretest, posttest and follow-up test. 2) compare the inhibitory control of high school students between the experimental group and the control group in posttest and follow-up test. The sample group were high school students from a private school, aged 12-17 years, without vision or hearing impairments, voluntary and parental consent was obtained. who had scores from the go/no-go task, arranged from highest to lowest and matching into control group and experimental group, 18 people per group. The experimental group had intervention, 6 sessions, 50 minutes per session, 3 sessions per week, 2 consecutive weeks. There were 3 phases: pretest, post-test, and follow-up after 3 week. Repeated-measures analysis of variance, one variable between groups and one variable within groups, were compared in pairs using the Bonfondroni method. The results showed that the commission errors mean scores of experimental group in posttest were better than pretest and it was better than the control group at p < 0.05. It might be concluded that using the social learning theory combined with origami training program enhance inhibitory control.
