Abstract: Introduction: Corona anxiety is the stress caused by the fear of contracting the corona virus, which is mostly due to the vagueness of the disease. This research was conducted with the aim of investigating the effectiveness of cognitive-behavioral training on the level of fear and anxiety caused by Corona and practical obsessive-compulsive disorder of housewives in the condition of covid-19 disease. Research method: This is a semi-experimental study with two experimental and control groups, and the statistical population of the study includes all housewives between the ages of 25 and 50 who met the conditions to enter the study. According to the research method, 30 people were randomly selected and divided into two experimental and control groups (15 people for each group). Data collection was done by questionnaires of fear and anxiety caused by Corona and practical obsessive-compulsive disorder, and the intervention was done by schema therapy protocol. Also, the statistical method of multivariate covariance analysis (MANCOVA) was used to analyze the data. Findings: The results indicated that there was a significant difference between the total score and the subscales of the two questionnaires of fear and anxiety caused by Corona and obsessive-compulsive disorder in the pre-test and post-test in the experimental and control groups in housewives. Conclusion: Based on the findings, it can be concluded that cognitive behavioral training has had an impact on all dependent variables, and its greatest impact has been on the variable of practical obsession and has reduced practical obsession.
