    <abstract locale="en_US">Background and Aim: Deaf children face several compatibility issues because of their hearing
 impairment. The present study aims to investigate the effectiveness of psychodrama using pantomime on the social adjustment of 12-15-year-old deaf female students in Isfahan.
 Methods: For this study, an experimental design was used with a pre-test and post-test and a control group. Thirty deaf subjects (12-15-year-olds) in Isfahan were selected randomly and allocated to experimental and control groups. To gather information, Rao&#x2019;s Social Maturity Scale was used. The data were analyzed by the multivariate analysis of covariance statistical method (SPSS version 21).
 Results: Our findings revealed that there was a significant difference between the performances of deaf students of both the groups in the post-test on social adjustment (p=0.0001).
 Conclusion: The use of psychodrama increased the rate of social adjustment in deaf students.</abstract>
