The purpose of this study was to investigate the effectiveness of compassion focused group therapy on Aggression, Emotion of self- regulation and school motivation. This study was done by semi-experimental approach with two groups and three stages (pre-test, post-test & follow up). To conduct the study, in 2018, among all male students in the second grade in the elementary school (10-13 years old) in Khoramabad City, 30 volunteers were purposefully selected based on the criteria for entry and exit. They were randomly divided into experimental group (n = 15) and control group (n = 15). The Shahim aggression questionnaire (1385), the Harter school motivation questionnaire (1981) and the Hafman and kashdan emotional self- regulation questionnaire (2010) were conducted as pre-test. The experimental group went under 12 sessions (three 45-minute sessions per week) of compassion focused group therapy and one week after intervention, both experimental and control groups took the post-test. After 1 month, the follow up was conducted. Analyze the results was performed using the analysis of variance by repeated measures in SPSS software version 24. The results of variance with repeated measurement analysis indicated that compassion focused group therapy has a significant effect on the Aggression & Emotion of self- regulation students (p<0.01). These results have stagnated over time. But in the level of school motivation, there was no significant difference between repeated measures of the effectiveness of therapeutic intervention. Therefore, therapeutic therapy can be used to improve the aggression and Emotion of self-regulation of students in health centers.
