We apply here the Time Dependent Convection (TDC) treatment presented in our earlier paper in this series to the study of delta Sct and gamma Dor pulsating stars. Stabilization of the d Sct p-modes at the red edge of the Instability Strip (IS) and the driving of the. Dor g-modes are explained by our models. Theoretical IS obtained with different values of the Mixing Length (ML) parameter alpha are compared to observations and a good agreement is obtained for alpha between 1.8 and 2. The influence of each term of our TDC treatment ( perturbation of convective flux, turbulent pressure, and turbulent kinetic energy dissipation) on the eigenfrequencies and on the driving and damping mechanisms is investigated. Finally, we show that our TDC models predict the likely existence of hybrid stars with both delta Sct p-modes and gamma Dor g-modes oscillations.
