The purpose of this study was to validate the twelve component risk-taking components of marriage. . The research design was descriptive-survey. The statistical population of the present study, all couples in Tehran, 300 (150 women and 150 men) were selected as sample by available sampling method, which were referred to the clinic.The research tool was a twelve questionnaire on risk aversion in marriage. The reliability of the questionnaire was evaluated using Cronbach's alpha and its validity using exploratory factor analysis (with principal components and varimax rotation) and confirmatory factor analysis. The exploratory factor analysis of twelve components of premarital injury (α = 0.93), instability of marriage pattern (α = 0.83), escape from the marital system (α = 0.82), main difference of couples (α = 0.85) , Possible marital events injury (α = 0.80), factors related to the main family (α = 0.77), presence of problematic elements in marriage (α = 0.77), premarital immobility experience (α = 0.71) , Marriage of marital healing factor (α = 0.73), presence of troublesome members in marriage (α = 0.52), place of residence and issues in marriage (α = 0.58), and individual differences (α = 0.46) ) Showed.
