The present research method was semi-experimental. The statistical population of the research is male students of the 10th grade of the first and second year of the second high school of Zahedan city, who were studying in the academic year of 2021-2022. The method of cluster sampling and determining the sample size was obtained from Cohen's table with an error rate of 5%. The studied sample was 40 students randomly replaced in two classes of 20 students. Accordingly, a pre-test-post-test research design with a control group has been used. The measurement tool in this research was Lochti and Sutin's (2003) memory experiences questionnaire. Mind maps are created manually or using mind mapping software. The obtained data have been analyzed using ANOVA or univariate covariance test with SPSS 20 software. The results showed that the role of mental imagery, according to Tony Buzan, has an effect on strengthening the memory of male students. One of the innovative points of this research is the use of mental imagery techniques according to Tony Bozan to strengthen students' memory, which has not been addressed in previous research.
