The purpose of this study was to compare the effects of Life Skills Training with and without Mindfulness Training on Rational-Experiential Thinking, and Negative Thoughts among youth with motor physical injuries. The research was experimental, with a pre-test, post-test, and follow-up design. The statistical population included male students with motor-physical injury from secondary exceptional high schools in Tehran. Due to the small size of the statistical population, the research sample included all individuals in this population during the 2021-2022 academic year. Using purposive sampling, 45 subjects randomly assigned to two experimental groups and one control group. Group one received life skills training and group two, received life skills training combined with mindfulness training. The control group did not receive any training. All three groups responded to the Rational-Experiential Inventory (Epstein & Pacini, 1999), Automatic Thoughts Questionnaire (Hollon & Kendall, 1980), before and after the training courses and a month after the end of them. Data analysis conducted using One-way variance, repeated measurement variance analysis and multivariate covariance analysis methods. The comparison of the groups showed that both interventions had similar effects on the participants' rational ability, rational engagement, and experiential ability and negative thoughts. It can said that both educational interventions lead to the strengthening rational and experimental thinking systems and reduction negative thoughts, which is valuable for youth with motor-physical injuries
