To analyze the data, multivariate analysis of covariance (MANCOVA) and single-variable analysis of covariance (ANCOVA) tests were used. The results showed that the use of music has a significant effect on the attention and memory of second-grade primary school students with a learning disorder in Ghaemshahr. Therefore, the use of music can be effective in improving the attention and active memory of children with a learning disorder.
