The sample consisted of (19) student in faculty of designs and applied arts at Taif University. The sample was divided randomly into two groups. The first one was the experimental group which encompassed (10) student. The second was the control group that included (9) student. The experimental group received (18) sessions (4 informatics – 14 executive) where the experimental group was given three sessions per a week. Then, at the end of the training sessions, the experimental and control groups was given the cognitive emotional regulation and academic boredom as a posttests to identify the differences. Following-up test within a month was measured for the group. To statistically analyze the date, Mann–Whitney U test as well as Wilcoxon signed-rank test were used. The results revealed that there were statistically significant differences in the mean ranks between the experimental group and the control group in the posttests on both cognitive emotional regulation and academic boredom scales in favor of the experimental group, and continuity of the positive impact of training during following up test in experimental group students after a month of posttests .The results were interpreted by the theoretical framework and the results of previous studies.
