The present study analyzes the efficacy of emotion-focused couple therapy (EFT) on the change of attachment styles and sexual intimacy of couples. This study is a quasi-experimental one with pretest and control group. For this aim, 25 couples who for marital conflicts had visited private counseling centers in Mashhad were selected by non-probability sampling voluntarily. 12 couples were put in the experimental group and 13 couples in the control group. All the participants filled in the attachment styles questionnaire of Collins & Reed and sexual intimacy questionnaire. Those in the experimental group took part in nine 1.5-hour sessions of emotion-focused couple therapy (EFT). After the end of therapy sessions, those in the two groups again filled in the mentioned questionnaire. The results show a significant difference between the experimental and control groups in the safety on attachment and sexual intimacy.

The aim of the current study was to investigate the different aspects of identity among the students of Tehran universities with a focus on the role of sexual differences. The statistical community included all the students who were studying at Tehran universities. The sample entailed 1000 persons that were selected by stratified random sampling. Religious, national identity scale and the revised questionnaires on identity style were the means of the study. Multiple- variance analysis of variance was applied for the analysis and interpretation of data. The findings of this study represented that the female group has achieved a higher scale in information, norms and commitment of identity in comparison to the male group. Whereas, the male group showed a higher mean in the sub-scale of diffuse/avoidance; the female group showed a higher mean in all the sub-scales of national and religious identity. On the whole, the present study revealed that all the sub-scales of identity in religious, psychological well-being, informative, normative and commitment aspects in female students are higher than male ones while, the diffuse and avoidance identity were higher in the male students. Generally, these findings proved psychological and social disorientation among the male students in comparison to the females. Since the male population (community) of the society is considered as more active and dynamic, this issue needs the serious consideration of those in charge.

The sample was consisted of 150 female and 150 male students who were selected randomly among Tehran University students. For data collection, this research has used Religious Attitude Scale of Khodayarifard et al (1386) and General health Questionnaire (Goldberg 1972).

Findings showed that all religiosity factors in female students have reverse relation with all mental health factors. Only the relation between religious emotions and affections with somatization and anxiety were significant. In male group, anxiety, depression, and general mental health had reverse significant relation with all religiosity subscales.
