After the end of the treatment program sessions and during the follow-up period. The researcher used the semi-experimental method, where the selection and appointment of the study groups " control and experimental randomly, and was confirmed by a large percentage of its homogeneity, then applied the therapeutic program to the experimental group and again applied the dimensional measurement to the two groups "control and experimental" and after The following period has passed since the end of the program sessions  "The second dimension test "tracking" was applied to the experimental group to determine the continuation of the impact of the therapeutic program. The study sample of 40 students of deaf children at the School of Deaf Young People in The State of Burj Bouarij, selected and appointed in a random way, divided into two groups, one of which is female 20 children, and the other experimental of 20 children.

- There are statistically significant differences in the degrees of anxiety in the experimental group in both the tribal and dimensional application in the direction of their grades in the tribal application.
