Background and Aim: Attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) is a common disorder among children in recent decades, resulting in decreased communication skills, isolation, and academic problems. Therefore, the present study aimed to compare the effectiveness of parent-child relationship-based intervention and dialectical behavior therapy on communication skills and reducing symptoms of ADHD in hyperactive children. Research Methods: The present study was a quasi-experimental design. The statistical population was all hyperactive children in Tabriz and Tehran. Using purposive sampling, 60 children aged 5 to 12 were selected and assigned to two intervention groups and a control group by simple random sampling. The data collection tools were the Matson Interpersonal Communication Skills Questionnaire (1983) and the Jordan Attention Deficit Disorder Index (1992). The data were analyzed using one-way analysis of covariance, independent t-test, and analysis of variance in SPSS version 26. Results: The results showed that there was a significant difference between the intervention based on the parent-child relationship and dialectical behavior therapy and the control group in the post-test on the variable of communication skills and reduction of symptoms of attention deficit disorder. Also, the intervention based on the parent-child relationship had a greater effect on communication skills and reduction of attention deficit in children with hyperactivity disorder than dialectical behavior therapy. Discussions: In this study, parents were taught to recognize the needs of their children, which led to the prevention of problems caused by hyperactivity, including attention deficit. On the other hand, the parent's positive attitude towards the child and effective response to behaviors created a suitable model for the individual's focus and attention, and ultimately could help him control the symptoms of attention deficit.
