Abstract
Nowadays, due to many factors, children show a lot of aggression. One of the best ways to teach children accurate behavior is to use entertainment. One of the best games that increase patience is origami. For this purpose, the present study examines the effect of origami on reducing anger and increasing patience in children aged 10 to 12 years. This research is quantitative. The data were obtained from the experiment on two control and experimental groups of 30 male students. The statistical population, at first, all male students between the age of 10-12 in the city of Karaj were considered for the academic year 2023-2024. Then, by cluster sampling, it was reduced to one school and finally, randomly, to two classes. The treatment of the control group was done with the teacher talking to the students and showing some videos about anger control. Modifications were made in the experimental group using the continuous practice of making origami. At the beginning and end of the academic year, both groups were given a questionnaire to assess the level of aggression, and the average scores of both groups were calculated. After the measures were taken, the students of the experimental group showed less desire to use violence. According to the questionnaire and observations, the results showed that using origami increases patience and decreases children's aggression.
