The data collection tool was Yale-Brown obsessive and the Hazen and Shaver attachment style questionnaire. The collected data were analyzed by SPSS software (Version 22) by independent t-test, repeated measures ANOVA and Post-Hoc Bonferroni, at a significant level (P <0.05).
Results: The mean scores of post-test and fallow up in three attachment styles and obsessive scores in the experimental group had a significant difference with the control group (P<0.001). In the schema group, the mean score of the two insecure attachment styles (secure, insecure anxiety& insecure avoidance) (avoidance and anxiety) and obsessive- compulsive symptoms in the post-test had a significant decrease with the score of pre-test and the scores of secure attachment style showed a significant increase (P<0.001).
